| Early on a bitterly cold Minnesota morning three men burst through the door of a hospital pharmacy duct-tape the hands feet mouth and eyes of two workers and clean the place out. Then things go bad as one of the workers dies and the robbers hustle out to their truck to find themselves -- for just one second -- face to face with Weather Karkinnen surgeon and wife of investigator Lucas Davenport. Did she see enough to identify them? |
Annotation:
John Sanford shows zero signs of fading with the publication of his 20th book in his bestselling Lucas Davenport series: populated by well-developed characters racing through a smart and swift plot, STORM PREY hits the mark. On her way to work early one morning in the midst of a snowstorm, surgeon Weather Karkinnen narrowly avoids a collision with a speeding vehicle, which turns out to be the getaway car from a fumbled robbery. A busy surgeon working on a major case involving conjoined twins, Weather--who is married to Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension Chief Lucas Davenport--is now a central witness in this unsolved case. Sanford keeps the tension taught as the criminals grow more desperate, and Lucas hustles to keep his wife out of harm's way.
