Title: Ah. Um. Mmm.
Product review: Broken Prey is just filler in an a series that's usually more engaging than this. Lucas Davenport goes bossing everyone around and doing whatever he wants in the course of his investigation into some brutal murders in Minnesota. The writing is barely passable, and the dialogue is sophomoric and punctuated with gems like "Ah" "Um" and Hmmm".There's no clever detective work, and Lucas grunts and swears for 380 pages until the killer's name finally turns up. It seems as though we learn in the first 30 pages or so that a nutter has to be stopped--but we blunder along for 300 pages basically learning nothing until Sandford decides to let Lucas find the key to the killer's identity.Folks, this is pretty junky stuff. I heartily recommend something (almost anything) else off your book list.
