- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5She was a high-profile model, now she is dead and the media is demanding action fro Lucas Davenport. To make matters worse, the suspect list includes one of his own men. I read this in one setting.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Another in the series of Prey books. I liked the series when it started (Rules of Prey), but like many series, by the time it gets to book 11, it just seems to be plodding along. I think this is when I stopped reading Sandford, although I still have this book because it is signed.Read a while ago (pre-2001) because I liked the series.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/53.5 stars. Pretty good mystery novel. It didn't end quite the way I was hoping, but I suppose it's good because it means I didn't figure out who the killers were as early as I thought I did. Sadly, the author absolutely fails to capture the setting adequately. I felt like the characters were from Miami or LA or Boston, not the twin cities or small-town Minnesota. They were too obsessed with appearance, fame, art, and vice; there were too many Catholics; and the religious nuts were the wrong type. Aside from their mismatch to the setting, however, the characters were well fleshed-out and believable. Apparently this is a series, and I just jumped in in the middle of it, but I had no trouble following it. I'll probably pick up the others when I'm looking for a good paperback mystery.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I guess it was inevitable. After the high quality of the previous two Prey novel, a drop off had to come sometime. Luckily Sandford’s average is still higher than most. This time Davenport and his people investigate the murder of a fashion model and a bystander during a party at a socialite’s mansion. The cops get everything wrong but each time still find enough to take the next step in the right direction. Nothing great but worth the price of admission.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5The most disappointing of the Prey series so far. Lackluster mystery, and a completely muddled and dumb romance plot line, totally out of character for Lucas. I'd give it a meh and hope the next one is better.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Another great story, gripping and fast moving. The twists and turns remind me of how Davenport drives that Porsche of his. Lucas and his women, they will surely be his downfall. He can't be alone and he can't be with someone long term. And Weather simply needs to GO AWAY! My biggest peeve with this series is the character names, they are getting more and more oddball. At least this time Sandford gave us a pronunciation guide for the main ones and a brief definition of the weird ones. I'm stilltrying to figure out what happened to the golf course idea. Another great ending. I had to force myself to go outside so that I didn’t immediately pick up the next book.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5This is the first John Sandford book I have read. I was not enamored. Most murder mystery books push me along; however, this one did not. I also get a sense from this book that the author does not really like women. Not so much for his characters or any rawness of the book but more because of the out of balance rawness of the book. In addition, the end is a fizzle. It comes from no where.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5One of a long series of detective who-dunits. Not that well written.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is the eleventh PREY book featuring Lucas Davenport, a detective in Minnesota, who loves women, games, and winning at all costs. In this book a beautiful if brainless model is found dead at a ritzy party, and the list of suspects seems endless. Then the bodies start piling up, and Davenport has to figure out whether he has more than one killer operating on his turf.All the PREY novels are somewhat formulaic, but this one displays greater depth than most. Davenport is still footloose and unattached in this book, though he's inching closer to the idea of settling down. The usual cast of supporting characters is on display, but in this book they have a more distinctive voice than in the later PREY novels. The mystery is intriguing, the action fast-paced, and the characters distinctive enough to add needed human interest to the mix. This book can be read as a stand-alone, and should serve as a good introduction to the series. Highly recommended.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Lucus Davenport has another murder case with a high profile murder. A famous model is strangled in a back room where a party with many 'elite' are enjoying themselves. while the cops are collecting evidence a second body is found stuffed in a closet. To top it all off, one of Davenports men was at the party undercover and the finger was pointed at him. As the investigation went on, more and more odd charactors showed up as suspects and more bodies mounted(eliminating some of the suspects). There was a neat little twist that showed perspective can be everything, you should always stop and turn around to take a look behind to see where you've been.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5It’s funny – I like Davenport. He’s a rabid sex-junkie and treats women fairly like Kleenex, but I like him. The actual case was pretty interesting. It was full of good investigative stuff – narrowing down suspects, putting evidence together, chasing bad guys & making them nervous. In the end, the killer turned out to not be one of the peripheral characters we’ve been watching. That disappointed me. Made it seem like a cheap ending to a pretty good story.
