Publisher Description
In life she was a high-profile model. In death she is the focus of a media firestorm that’s demanding action from Lucas Davenport, because one of Davenport's own men is a suspect in her murder. But when a series of bizarre, seemingly unrelated slayings rock the city, Davenport suspects a connection that runs deeper than anyone had imagined—one that leads to an ingenious killer more ruthless than anyone had feared. . . .

"I really like the Lucas Davenport "Prey" series by John Sandford. They are always exciting and keep me on the edge of my seat until I finish. In this entry, Davenport is investigating a world famous model who has been murdered at a party. After two bodies are found at this party everyone assumes that the main target of the murderer was the model, Alie'e Maison. As Lucas digs to uncover the truth the case becomes more and more baffling until finally we discover the true target of the murderer and the reasons behind the subsequent murders which occur. Along the way Lucas encounters the usual trouble with women that he always runs into. This time two women from his past and a new lady are causing him grief. By the end of the book we still don't know which lady he chooses. Such is the life of Lucas Davenport! I have read many of the books in this series and have liked all of them. Just the right amount of tension to keep me interested."

Easy Prey Listener Reviews
-
" My least favorite of the Prey series, but according to the John Sandford website, the most realistic as far as police work goes. "
— Kathie, 2/11/2014 -
" Not one of my favorites. "
— Cindi, 2/7/2014 -
" Loved the book, however, the ending seemed more like a way to wrap things up. "
— Wenonah, 1/27/2014 -
" This book was ok....I felt it was a little bit of a let down after coming off of the previous book. Overall not a bad book, just didn't pack the punch for which I was looking. I will say though that there is some interesting developments in our main man Lucas! This book seemed to revolve a little more around Lucas and his personal struggles as he deals with 4 women and their "problems". I would recommend reading this one just for the inside look at Lucas. "
— Deborah, 1/17/2014 -
" This was the most difficult Prey to get through. Maybe it was just the topic; the whole fashion industry doesn't interest me much. Still, Lucas and his band of merry bad-guy catchers is consistently entertaining and reason enough to continue plodding one's way through the story. "
— Dede, 1/15/2014 -
" good thriller by john sandford "
— John, 1/12/2014 -

" good writer from the Twin Cities-it was interesting reading all the locations that I know! Too many characters, hard to keep everyone straight unless you had the time to sit and read it all at once. "
— Jill, 11/29/2013 -

" too many long paragraphs explaining the overly complex and slightly dull plot. Not ones of his best. "
— Ruby, 10/14/2011 -
" Not my favorite Lucas Davenport. Too many characters, to many strings, never did understand the way some of the murders figured in. Glad this was not the first one I read or I would have skipped Sanford as a writer and missed out on some good reading. "
— Ginny, 9/3/2011 -
" I read this book out of order, but it was still a great read! Again, John Sanford led us on a great search for the killer and put in great storylines about the characters I love. I hope he never runs out of ideas for Lucas! "

" Lucas Davenport is a wealthy, smart, and risk taking police exec who must solve a Hollywood-like murder. This story leads in many different directions to solve these murders, and the ending is a shocker. Good stuff. "
— Ronald, 1/22/2011 -
" If you've read one of these, you've pretty much read them all. "
— Lauretta, 1/12/2011 -

" This one started as a real page turner for me, but then it really slowed down. In the middle I didnt really care whodunit, but then as usual, it picked up at the end when all of the action went down. "
— Sarah, 8/1/2010 -
" Typically good Sandford mystery. More nights staying up late to see what happens next! "
