I finally finished this book last night, late. Reading it is all I’ve been doing since I started on it Friday night. It has ruined my sleep. I missed most of the US Open coverage on Sunday and pretty much neglected my family duties in order to see this book through to the end. I did get the lawn mowed last night though.
Its got motorcycle gangs, red necks, skinheads, psychopaths, cocaine addicted doctors, complicated craniatamies, pistols, gunshots, hand grenades, double crosses, double double crosses, and a string of innocent and not so innocent victims scattered across Minnesota and several detectives who just can’t seem to get ahead of the game until the very end. Its a testament to the losers among us who can create so much chaos for so little gain.
This book is great. I give it four stars out of four. I got a free copy from the library. The Kindle version is priced too high at $12.99.
Ah, Sandford! One of my all time favorites! I’ll have to get this one. Another couplr of favorites of mine is Michael Connelly and James Lee Burke. If you haven’t already checked them out, you might enjoy them. Thanks for the tip as always. Have a great day!

I have read maybe 8 of his Prey books. Might have to re read some of them. LOL can’t remember what any of them were about. Another great review.
The book sounds totally absorbing. I’m putting it on my list.
Sandford is a talented suspense writer. I love his books!
Another author to add to my list – thank you. I’m with Sylvia K on Michael Connelly – just finished The Scarecrow and it’s brilliant.
Ooo, I like to read John Sanford. Unfortunately I may buy it as I’m a book junkie.
