Lethal Prey (Lucas Davenport Series #35)
Lucas Davenport and Virgil Flowers join forces to track down a ruthless killer who will do whatever it takes to keep the past buried, in this latest thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author John Sandford.

Doris Grandfelt, an employee at an accounting firm, was brutally stabbed to death . . . but nobody knew exactly where the crime took place. Her body was found the next night, dumped among a dense thicket of trees along the edge of an urban park, eight miles east of St. Paul, Minnesota. Despite her twin sister Lara Grandfelt's persistent calls to the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, the killer was never found.

Twenty years later, Lara has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Confronted with the possibility of her own death, she's determined to find Doris's killer once and for all. Finally taking matters into her own hands, she dumps the entire investigative file on every true crime site in the world and offers a $5 million reward for information leading to the killer's arrest. Dozens of true crime bloggers show up looking for both new evidence and “clicks,” and Lucas Davenport and Virgil Flowers are called in to review anything that might be a new lead.

When one of the bloggers locates the murder weapon, Lucas and Virgil begin to uncover vital details about the killer's identity. But what they don't know is the killer lurks in plain sight, and with the true crime bloggers blasting every clue online, the killer can keep one step ahead. As the nation maneuvers the detectives closer to the truth, Lucas and Virgil will find that digging up Doris's harrowing past might just get them buried instead.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

One of New York Post's 30 Must-Read New Thrillers

"A superlative police procedural paired with an outrageous serial-killer saga, enlivened by an array of quirky characters." —Wall Street Journal

APRIL 2025 - AudioFile

Narrator Robert Petkoff teams up with author John Sandford for another exhilarating romp featuring U.S. Marshal Lucas Davenport and Bureau of Criminal Apprehension agent-turned-thriller-writer Virgil Flowers. Assigned to solve a twenty-year-old crime, they're forced to collaborate with true-crime bloggers to crowdsource clues. Petkoff masterfully differentiates the diverse male characters--heroes and villains alike--and finds credible voices for the women. His performance enhances the tension and humor that define the series. The bloggers' involvement adds a fresh contemporary angle to the investigation. While listeners know the culprit's identity early on, the narrative's twists keep them fully engaged as Davenport and Flowers chase every lead. Petkoff's skillful narration makes this a worthy addition to the Prey series, keeping fans entertained from start to finish. E.Q. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine
