After the events in Gathering Prey, Lucas Davenport finds himself in a very unusual situation—no longer employed by the Minnesota BCA. His friend the governor is just cranking up a presidential campaign, though, and he invites Lucas to come along as part of his campaign staff. “Should be fun!” he says, and it kind of is—until they find they have a shadow: an armed man intent on killing the governor...and anyone who gets in the way.

In the midst of all my other books, I had forgotten how much I enjoy this series. Lucas is, again, digging, thinking, driving towards finding answers to his question. The usage of interpersonal tactics and intelligence to solve a mystery is again well done by John Sandford. Again, Lucas has grown as a character through this book, adding to the growth from the brash young hothead in book one until now.
The first book since Lucas left the BCA and it was quite good. I spent most of the time literally biting my nails and also thinking about how long Sandford could sustain this badge-less Davenport. But now I really can't wait for the next book and the latest chapter in Davenport's career.
As usual, the latest installment of the Prey novels was full of rich and colorful characters, a complicated but easily followed plot with a subplot or two to keep things extremely interesting and that slight bit of humor ever now and then. Now I don't know what else to do but go back and re-read the older books until Virgil's next book comes out!
