[Twisted Prey] by John Sandford
Lucas Davenport Series Book #28
5 ★
Lucas Davenport had crossed paths with her before. A rich psychopath, Taryn Grant had run successfully for the U.S. Senate, where Lucas had predicted she'd fit right in. He was also convinced that she'd been responsible for three murders, though he'd never been able to prove it. Once a psychopath had gotten that kind of rush, though, he or she often needed another fix, so he figured he might be seeing her again. He was right. A federal marshal now, with a very wide scope of investigation, he's heard rumors that Grant has found her seat on the Senate intelligence committee, and the contacts she's made from it, to be very...useful. Pinning those rumors down was likely to be just as difficult as before, and considerably more dangerous. They had unfinished business, he and Grant. One way or the other, he was going to see it through to the end.It's the "good guys" against the "bad guys'. Everyone has chosen a side. Since Lucas became a U.S. Marshall he is called on to deal with more evil scum if that is even possible. This "evil scum" is one he has dealt with before. Luckily the bad guys are not very competent or smart...but they are very deadly. Another great addition to this long running series that Davenport fans will find to be a powerful read.
