(via New book release: 'Toxic Prey' by John Sandford)

Letty Davenport is back and badder than ever. Dark Angel is book 2 in the new series from John Sandford. "Homeland Security suspects a hacker group - Ordinary People - of planning to go after the natural gas grid in a large city in the Midwest. Letty and an operative from the NSA are sent undercover to try and infiltrate the group before they shut down a city in the winter. Letty and her partner head to California but Letty is uneasy - there's something that DHS is not telling her..." Letty has come a long way from that small town in Minnesota when she had to fend for herself as a 12-year-old - using an old .22 rifle to protect herself from a corrupt deputy. Now she has a graduate degree in Economics from Stanford and is one of the best shots in the agency. Probably the biggest "suspend belief" part of these books is how much leeway a green 25-year-old agent has in the different ops. Sandford keeps the story moving until a lull near the end. You know what's coming but he makes you wait for it. Lots of action in this one. And Sandford has a big "what if" with the hacker group. You think the story is moving a certain way but Sandford uses today's headlines to take it out there. Who knows? Maybe that's what happened. All of Sandford's books can be read as stand-alones. This is another action-packed, fast-paced narrative from Sandford. You'll love the Peacemaker club.

New book coming from John Sandford this week - Righteous Prey, book 32 in his Lucas Davenport series. This is another great Prey book and can be read as a stand-alone. How many long series have you read? #righteousprey #johnsandford #lucasdavenport #bookstagram #bookshelves #booknerd #readinglife #bookwormlife #sodacityreads #bookworm #suspensebook #bookhaul #literarycrimefiction #homelibrary #thrillerbooks #domesticthriller #crimefiction #thriller #characterdrivenbooks #mysterythriller #bookrecs #putnambooks #virgilflowers https://www.instagram.com/p/CjNe0jyAB5y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’ve been a Sandford fan a long time so I was excited to get approved for the new Davenport book. This went right to the top of the stack. Righteous Prey is Book 32 in the Lucas Davenport series from John Sandford. "A group known as the Five release an ominous message to the press. They are fed up with certain people and will kill the people to be killed. The first victim is found with a 1 on his forehead and the promise from the group of more killings. When one happens in Minnesota, Lucas joins the search for the killers - thought to be Bitcoin billionaires. Lucas and Virgil start looking at the clues and figure out who might be next. And now they wait..." Davenport is an iconic fictional detective. Even after 30+ years writing this character, Sandford still makes him come alive on the pages. Sandford always has scary bad guys. Sandford looks at the morally gray aspect here - what happens when the victim is someone that no one really liked or cared for? Is vigilante justice sometimes okay? The final gunfight is intense and you're never sure who's going to make it. Glad to see Kidd back. And long-time Sandford fans will appreciate a reference to the "pinking shears" incident. This is part of a series but can be read as a stand-alone. This novel does not slow down from the first page. Another gripping, fast-paced narrative from Sandford. #righteousprey #johnsandford #lucasdavenport #virgilflowers #putnambooks #netgalley #crimefictionthriller #bookstagram #bookshelves #booknerd #readinglife #bookwormlife #sodacityreads #readersofig #bookreview #bookwormlife #suspensebook #bookhaul #literarycrimefiction #goodreads #homelibrary #thrillerbooks #domesticthriller #crimefiction #thriller #characterdrivenbooks #mysterythriller #bookrecs https://www.instagram.com/p/CcVJSRAL-gx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
