Book Reviews of Rules of Prey (Lucas Davenport, No. 1)
Book Review: Amazing thrill ride of a book!
Summary: 5 Stars
In this book, John Sandford skillfully creates a story about a serial killer who brings the Twin Cities to it's feet. Louis Vullion, a small-time attorney, has started a game of cat and mouse with the police department. He is a scary intelligent man who has a great knowledge of police forensics. He came up with a set of rules he believes are a sure-fire way of avoiding capture. #1: Never kill anyone you know...he picks his victims at random, making sure that there is no profile made on the women. #2: Never have a motive...if he doesn't know the victim, there really isn't a motive for picking her. #3: Never have a discernable pattern...every time he kidnaps a woman, he makes sure that the manner is different every time. #4: Never carry a weapon after it's been used. #5: Beware of leaving physical evidence...he makes sure that there isn't any way that his body will leave any kind of physical evidence. The "maddog" killer leaves a different rule at every crime scene, taunting the police to catch him. They're at their wits end until Lucas Davenport, a detective who works for the department's Office of Special Intelligence, is called upon to find him. And Lucas has something that Vullion didn't count on...a survivor...a witness.
This story takes you through a thrill ride that makes it hard to put the book down, in anticipation of what will happen next. Sandford's characters are very authentic. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoy's suspensful thrillers. You will be on the edge of your seat from the first page to the last.
