In which Lucas investigates a series of killings apparently committed by a bunch of Indians (native Americans, that is), none of whom seems too bothered about whether he or she gets caught.

Second Prey book, following on from Rules of Prey. And given that the first one was a little bit weak, I hadn't been over-excited about this. But it was a good one: seems like Sandford got into his stride pretty quickly.

Pretty good yarn: in this one you know who the baddies are from the start, and it's up to Lucas to catch up with you. A twist here was that while Lucas normally relies on informants to gather information about an ongoing set of crimes, he has no snitches in the Indian community, and so he's forced to be a bit creative in deciding who to lean on and how.

In this book, Lucas is in a relationship with Jennifer, who's the mother of his daughter. But he also falls for Lily, a detective who's been seconded as an observer from the NYPD, and so the Jennifer thing looks like it's on the way out.

The only one I've not read now is Phantom Prey.
