This is the first book I have read by John Sanford, but I enjoyed it so much I will be looking for other books by him. He is a very clever writer. The book is about a gruesome serial killer. The initial suspect is a recently released inmate of a prison hospital. We get to visit the prison hospital and meet some of the scary and strange characters there. The story itself is very suspensful with a surprise ending - I love those.

John Sandford has one of the best ever crime fiction series going with his "Prey" novels. "Broken Prey," the 16th and most recent story in the series is, arguably, his best effort yet. Sandford's knack for using detail and sense of place to transport the reader out of their armchair and into an alternate world is supberb and it truly excels in this story. His characters are alive from first introduction, whatever scene he sets is right there for the reader, his plotting is perfect yet invisible...on and on. Add to that an incredibly well written climax--an action scene that ranks as the best I've ever read--and you have, with Broken Prey, John Sandford at the pinnacle of his game.

This was a good book. A few twists & turns to keep it interesting. I never guessed the ending. I have read one other book by John Sandford & found it to be kind of boring so I was hesitant to read his other books.

Any Lucus Davenport book is awesome. If he were real I would entertain thoughts of moving to Minnisota and I hate the cold. Great Book

Another fast-paced thriller finds Davenport searching for a serial killer who mutilates his victims and leaves a trail of wrong turns in his wake. Added bonus is the back and forth conversations with his friends and co-workers to determine his Top 100 Rock Songs!
