Gathering Prey (Lucas Davenport, #25)

John Sandford

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

A terrifying Lucas Davenport thriller from #1 New York Times –bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize–winner John Sandford.   They call them Travelers. They move from city to city, panhandling, committing no crimes—they just like to stay on the move. And now somebody is killing them. Lucas Davenport’s adopted daughter, Letty, is home from college when she gets a phone call from a woman Traveler she’d befriended in San Francisco. The woman thinks somebody’s killing her friends, she’s afraid she knows who it is, and now her male companion has gone missing. She’s hiding out in North Dakota, and she doesn’t know what to do. Letty tells Lucas she’s going to get her, and, though he suspects Letty’s getting played, he volunteers to go with her. When he hears the woman’s story, though, he begins to think there’s something in it. Little does he know. In the days to come, he will embark upon an odyssey through a subculture unlike any he has ever seen, a trip that will not only put the two of them in danger—but just may change the course of his life.

    I don't think listening to the audio version of this book was a good idea - so much was happening the entire time it was difficult for me to follow the sequence of events as closely as I would have if I'd read the physical book. It just kept escalating and escalating and I wasn't entirely sure how it escalated as bad as it did. I still enjoyed the book, I just found myself questioning "how did we get here" way more often than I had with other books in the series and because of that lapse in my attention it subtracted from the intensity of the action. I might be revisiting this book later on and reading the physical copy to fill in the blanks in transition.
