I've been a fan of the Prey series for years, and found this one seriously lacking with a silly plotline and cast of characters.
The Prey books have all been good. Lucas came off as a lazy jerk. This one, however, sucks. It was so bad I couldn't be bothered to sort out all the names beginning with "A" in this book. I didn't find one character to like, and in fact I was hoping the killer would knock the whole works of them off. Zero stars.
I've been a fan of this series for years but it was almost all I could do to finish reading this one. I was very disapointed with the lack of suspense, next to no action, and somewhat stupid story plot. I can't take many more of THESE.If you're a fan of this series you won't miss out if you skip this one.
I have read every one of the Prey Books-- This one is a "C" -- Lots of filler, meaningless side story, and a not very interesting main story. The main storyline could have been great if developed properly --but Mr Sandford missed the boat on this one. Lacks the plotting & strong characters that make the Prey books great.
BTW he eye f***ks every gal he sees but when propositioned he says he is loyal to a fault to his surgeon wife. Just too important, too wealthy of a guy to be working a case with no leads.
I do enjoy a good novel and usually enjoy a good Cop one. This is the first book I have read in this series and it will be the last.
I do not enjoy main characters that have no flaws and the main character for me has had a charmed life from a hot surgeon wife, to a Porsche and everyone knowing who he is. This story just fell flat for me.
Deductions felt forced and good cop work I guess is taking advice from others who are not cops and then trying out how they play. All the clues should have been picked up by any large city PD.
He should have been tougher and more about working his leads without having a City's PD at his disposal.
