Damn I wish I had Davenport’s problem. The choice of three women to go to bed with!! But that’s just a slight diversion to main plot, a convoluted examination of the murder of two women at the one time. I am a great fan of Sandford but this is a mess of a story. People keep getting popped off regularly throughout the story. As usual the reader is introduced to the murderer in the early stages of the novel. He then disappears and by the time you reach the last page there has been that many murders that you are unsure who that character was at the beginning and if you are like me, you don’t really care.
This story did not have any real tension and for too long there was no narrowing down as to who the culprit was. I found it a real mess of a story.
One interesting aspect is when you have read many of the Prey series, to go back and observe Lucas Davenport in his younger and sexually active days. You appreciate how Sandford has developed Davenport’s character.
In this book Davenport meets up with Weather again and as the well read reader knows she ends up becoming his wife.
Not the best of the Prey series and unfortunately one of the weakest.
