About this listen

Murder. Scandal. Politics. And one billionaire heiress so dangerous in so many ways. An explosive Lucas Davenport thriller from number one New York Times best-selling author John Sandford.

All hell has broken loose in the capital. An influential state senator has been caught with something very, very nasty on his office computer. The governor can’t believe it - the senator’s way too smart for that, even if he is from the other party. Something’s not right. As Davenport investigates, the trail leads to a political fixer who has disappeared, then - troublingly - to the Minneapolis police department itself, and most unsettling of all, to a woman who could give Machiavelli lessons in manipulation. She has very definite ideas about the way the world should work - along with the money, ruthlessness, and cold-blooded will to make it happen.

Sometimes, too much narration & not enough action

This is unusual for a John Sandford story, but I was seriously bored for about the first third of the book. I felt there was too much explaining going on, and not enough excitement. If JS could have shaved the wording down at points, the plot would have moved along more quickly. The rest of the book was more like it, imo.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
