Night Prey
(OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, OverDrive Listen)
Description
A Lucas Davenport thriller by internationally bestselling novelist John Sandford
He was the best at what he did. A chameleon, invisible... uncatchable. For how could you catch an invisible man
After a two-year break, Lucas Davenport is back on the force and his first job is dealing with state investigator Meagan Connell. Determined to prove a link between a series of particularly brutal attacks on women, Meagan is struggling to be taken seriously. The cops are wary of her, the public thinks she's too political, the feminists thinks she's sold out.
But the more Lucas looks into it, the more he suspects that Meagan is right to fear the worst. Somewhere out there, spying on his unknowing victims at their most intimate moments, lurks a killer of unusual skill and savagery—and he's only just getting warmed up...

Starred review from May 2, 1994
The pseudonymous Sandford (he's Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist John Camp) keeps turning out better and better thrillers. In this sixth entry in his Prey series, streetwise Minneapolis deputy police chief Lucas Davenport is beleaguered by perplexing females. Charged with saving the political life of Rose Marie Roux, the ambitious police chief who has her eye on a Senate seat, he's given the assignment of tracking to ground the sex-crazed perpetrator of a series of murders of young women. Davenport's unwelcome colleague in this case is feminist Meagan Connell, an abrasive State Bureau of Criminal Apprehension investigator who's obsessed with catching the killer before she dies of cancer. Also bedeviled by the ill-timed assignment of a new partner, a yuppie who was formerly assigned to the grade schools as ``Officer Friendly'' and who happens to be the husband of the mayor's niece, Davenport is additionally saddled with the mystifying death of an elderly woman who died rather conveniently, freeing some local hoods to profit from a real-estate scam. Juxtaposing the dark consciousness of the sex-fixated murderer against the narrative perspective of Davenport, Sandford builds a compelling counter-rhythm of suspense. The narrative is sensitively embued with Davenport's humaneness as, in awe, he watches Connell courageously fight to postpone her impending death. Yet, credibly flawed, the cop also displays a roving eye when he's momentarily distracted from his deep commitment to the lovely physician Weather Karkinnen by a beautiful and seductive TV anchor. Literary Guild and Doubleday Book Club main selection; Mystery Guild alternate.

- content: Richard Ferrone's gravelly voice and calm tone add suspense to this shocking thriller about serial killer Koop. Listeners ride along as Koop selects and stalks his victim and State Inspector Megan Connell and Minneapolis Police Lieutenant Lucas Davenport investigate the similarities of the vicious stabbing and disemboweling of his victims. Ferrone empathetically portrays the various male and female characters, finding unique voices, pacing, and volume for each. The dialogue sizzles, and the tense scenes lead to a spectacular climax. Don't listen alone. S.C.A. (c) AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine
