Twisted Prey
Lucas Davenport had crossed paths with her before.
A rich psychopath, Taryn Grant had run successfully for the U.S. Senate, where Lucas had predicted she'd fit right in. He was also convinced that she'd been responsible for three murders, though he'd never been able to prove it. Once a psychopath had gotten that kind of rush, though, he or she often needed another fix, so he figured he might be seeing her again.
He was right. A federal marshal now, with a very wide scope of investigation, he's heard rumors that Grant has found her seat on the Senate intelligence committee, and the contacts she's made from it, to be very...useful. Pinning those rumors down was likely to be just as difficult as before, and considerably more dangerous.
But they had unfinished business, he and Grant. One way or the other, he was going to see it through to the end.

John Sandford
John Sandford writes crime fiction that moves with the restless energy of the streets it describes. His novels are known for their sharp observation, moral tension, and an unsettling closeness to real violence, the kind that feels sudden and personal rather than theatrical. Long before his books filled bestseller lists, Sandford trained his eye as a journalist, learning how to notice the small, telling details that reveal who people really are under pressure. That background still shapes his fiction, where every scene feels grounded in lived experience.
Lucas Davenport
The Lucas Davenport series drops readers into a world where intelligence, impatience, and moral compromise collide.
