Phantom Prey (Lucas Davenport, Bk 18) (Audio CD) (Unabridged)
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 3


I started with great anticipation on this 18th installment of the Lucas Davenport series and sadly, did not feel it met the mark. The plot seemed very unbelievable mid-point through the tale. It seems far-fetched that an otherwise intelligent, business-owning widow would become a mindless murdering machine who has not one but two imaginary personalities! It is never explained what brought on this break with reality and how she was able to conduct her business affairs as "normally" as possible without others noticing. The author should have spent a little more time researching multiple personality disorder before writing this thinly-veiled psycho-babble novel.
