What this book is about
A Minnesota Supreme Court justice's wife and sons are murdered in their home — a crime that shocks the state's legal establishment and draws Lucas Davenport into an investigation with political dimensions he hadn't anticipated. The thirty-third Prey novel delivers Sandford's reliable combination of meticulous procedural investigation, sharp character dynamics, expert pacing, and the significant crime-thriller violence that has made the series one of the most enduring in American crime fiction.
