Invisible Prey
|
| | | Annotation: Lucas Davenport is back for more sleuthing in John Sanford's 17th Davenport whodunit. INVISIBLE PREY has Davenport investigating two very different cases. One involves a powerful politician's dalliances with an underage girl, and the other is the double murder of a wealthy elderly woman and her maid. While some might find this installment a bit more cerebral and less action-packed than the usual Davenport novel, fans are sure to be tantalized by the debauched world of Price's stalwart detective.

| Author Bio| John Sandford | | After serving in the Korean War, John Sandford began his journalism career working in Missouri and Iowa before moving to Florida in 1970. He worked for "The Miami Herald" for eight years before moving again to Minnesota to work for "The Saint Paul Pioneer Press", where he became a popular columnist. In the mid-'80s, during what was then called the "Farm Crisis," Sandford, under his given name John Camp, wrote a five-part series focusing on the hardships of a Minnesota farming family. His reporting won him a Pulitzer Prize for feature writing. Several years later, Sandford published his first novel, "The Fool's Run", followed almost simultaneously by "Rules of Prey", the first novel in his popular Prey series, featuring policeman Lucas Davenport. Often revolving around a disturbing crime or demented criminal, the majority of Sandford's novels are psychological thrillers with tough characters and fast pacing. |
