The 26th Lucas Davenport novel! After finishing Gathering Prey, I was a little concerned that the series might have ended. Thankfully, a couple of a days ago, John Sandford announced Extreme Prey! To be published in April 2016 by G.P. Putnam’s Sons, it sounds pretty interesting:
After the events in Gathering Prey, Lucas Davenport finds himself in a very unusual situation — no longer employed by the Minnesota BCA. His friend the governor is just cranking up a presidential campaign, though, and he invites Lucas to come along as part of his campaign staff. “Should be fun!” he says, and it kind of is — until they find they have a shadow: an armed man intent on killing the governor… and anyone who gets in the way.
Can’t wait to read this. If you haven’t tried the Prey series, yet, I highly recommend it. John Sandford is easily one of my all-time favourite authors.

Interesting to see an established character having to switch gears/careers after 26 novels. Sounds like the series may be moving from mystery/detective fare to more of a political thriller vein. Some people probably won’t like the switch, but it could add some new spice to this series.

Some people might be annoyed, true. But, Sandford’s already injected some politics into the Prey series (especially with Silken Prey), and he did write a political thriller stand-alone not so long ago (Dead Watch). So, I’m hopeful. 🙂
