- One of the Best of the Prey Series...
In the last Prey book, the reader did not know who the bad guy was. In this one, Night Prey, the identity of the killer is known to the reader, and the reader is allowed into his psyche and is a part of the deterioration of that psyche. Both presentations of these stories were done well. Usually I like figuring out who the killer is, but Sandford does both ways in a compelling manner. Another interesting component in this book is Lucas's female partner, Connell. She has an interesting secret that I won't give away, but the flawed character of Davenport grows as he comes to terms with her situation. Weather is here too, first introduced in Winter Prey. Another superb addition to the Prey series.

- Good read!
Like all of Sandford's Prey series Night Prey is tightly plotted and fast paced. For fan's of the thriller/mystery genre' like myself, this is well worth the investment of your time.

- Most Disturbing Prey Yet
Sandford, a local Minnesota author with national appeal, gives us one of the most disturbing and terrifying murderers his has ever written about. This is a thrilling work from the very beginning.

- A great cops-chase-a-killer thriller that reminds me of an earlier genre classic
A terrific, entertaining page-turner, and- with its mentally deteriorating serial killer, disturbingly bloody crimes, cops putting their heads together to figure out how best to catch the killer, and personal issues facing the cops as they try to do their jobs- very reminiscent of probably my all-time favorite cops-chasing-a-killer thriller, the classic "The First Deadly Sin," by Lawrence Sanders. And while Mr. Sandford definitely gives his own personal stamp to the proceedings, I would find it hard to believe that he didn't read and enjoy that earlier thriller, too; in so many ways this seems to be a tribute to Sanders' immersive thriller about the Ice Axe killer and Chief Detective Edward X. Delaney's attempts to catch him.

But back to "Night Prey"... I enjoyed the nice balance between Lucas Davenport's cop work and his current personal issues (is monogamy truly for him?), the extremely well-drawn ... Read More
