The extraordinary new Lucas Davenport thriller from the #1 New York Times-bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize winner.If you havent read Sandford yet, you have been missing one of the great summer-read novelists of all time.-Stephen King, Entertainment WeeklyMurder, scandal, political espionage, and an extremely dangerous woman. Lucas Davenports going to be lucky to get out of this one alive.Very early one morning, a Minnesota political fixer answers his doorbell. The next thing he knows, hes waking up on the floor of a moving car, lying on a plastic sheet, his body wet with blood. When the car stops, a voice says, Hey, I think hes breathing, and another voice says, Yeah? Give me the bat. And thats the last thing he knows.Davenport is investigating another case when the trail leads to the mans disappearance, then-very troublingly-to the Minneapolis police department, then-most troublingly of all-to a woman who could give Machiavelli lessons. She has very definite ideas about the way the world should work, and the money, ruthlessness, and sheer will to make it happen.No matter who gets in the way.Filled with John Sandfords trademark razor-sharp plotting and some of the best characters in suspense fiction, Silken Prey is further evidence for why the Cleveland Plain Dealer called the Davenport novels a perfect series, and Suspense Magazine wrote, If you havent read any of the Prey series, you need to jump on board right this second.
