Summary: Another good Prey-novel
Comment: This Prey-novel, Night Prey, is not the best I have read. But it is not a bad book, not at all. Lucas Davenport is back on the force, mostly working behind the scenes. In Night Prey he is on a hunt for a serial killer who preys on lonely women with average looks, women who nobody'll notice. The killer falls in love with a business woman, and starts stalking her. She is unaware of him, and it is not until the last part of the book she discovers what's going on, and then it is almost too late. Davenport also has to deal with a dying state-police woman, who has one goal in her life, before she dies: to catch this serial killer. The character-descriptions are not as well developed in this book as they have been in other John Sandford novels, but nevertheless, Night Prey is a fast read and it will keep you entertained while reading. It is not nail-biting exciting though, something I missed with this one.

Summary: An excellent series continues
Comment: Don't read this book!
If you're reading this, I assume you haven't read the series up to Night Prey. If you had, you wouldn't waste your time reading reviews. There would be no question. There would be no hesitation. You'd be reading Night Prey.
So since you haven't read the series to this point, start at Rules of Prey. Follow with Shadow Prey, Eyes of Prey, Silent Prey, and Winter Prey. Then it's time for this.
Night Prey is a solid addition to the series to this point. While it doesn't quite stand up to the level of excellence established in the preceding three volumes, it's still a compelling story with memorable characters. And while the main story is one of pure suspense, with any real element of mystery sacrificed to study the villain, Sandford weaves in a subplot which is classic "locked door" (as another reviewer puts it). It's nicely done.
A question for those who've read the book : If SSA is backwards, is SJ as well? What's the author's name?

Summary: Compelling reading
Comment: Lucas Davenport is back with the Minneapolis police force as Deputy Chief after a 2 year break. A State Investigator, Meagan Connell, is brought in to help solve the brutal attacks on women.Her demeanour as a tough, no-holds barred female cop, disguises the fact that she is dying of cancer and is determined to solve the case before she dies.A series of successful attacks and murders has given the perpetrator a hunger for more, so he fixates on an attractive and successful business woman and stalks and spies on her repeatedly.This is a hair raising story which will grip the reader to the end as well as giving a frightening look into the twisted and criminal mind of a sadistic rapist and murderer.
