Golden Prey by John Sandford Book Summary

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Lucas Davenport’s first case as a U.S. Marshal sends him into uncharted territory in the thrilling new novel in the #1 New York Times-bestselling series.

The man was smart and he didn’t mind killing people. Welcome to the big leagues, Davenport. 

Thanks to some very influential people whose lives he saved, Lucas is no longer working for the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, but for the U.S. Marshals Service, and with unusual scope. He gets to pick his own cases, whatever they are, wherever they lead him.

And where they’ve led him this time is into real trouble. A Biloxi, Mississippi, drug-cartel counting house gets robbed, and suitcases full of cash disappear, leaving behind five bodies, including that of a six-year-old girl. Davenport takes the case, which quickly spirals out of control, as cartel assassins, including a torturer known as the “Queen of home-improvement tools” compete with Davenport to find the Dixie Hicks shooters who knocked over the counting house. Things get ugly real fast, and neither the cartel killers nor the holdup men give a damn about whose lives Davenport might have saved; to them, he’s just another large target.

Filled with his trademark razor-sharp plotting and some of the best characters in suspense fiction, Golden Prey is further reason why “Sandford has always been at the top of any list of great mystery writers” (The Huffington Post).

Another all night read. By far, the best read from ANY author of this genre since the last Prey book. Thank you Mr. Sanford!!! No one comes close. Long live Lucas Davenport.

Thoroughly satisfied my bloodlust!. Liked the entertaining narrative throughout. For me, it’s a steep challenge to keep the characters’ names straight. First names pop up after using last names for SEVERAL pages, then nicknames get inserted so as to keep me on the toes! But really enjoyed the story. And appreciate the authors effort to keep somewhat neutral on politics. Always gets my antenna “up” when I get clues about the heroes’ character. Don’t wanna root for some clueless lackey who’s defending the wrong kinda people😂

Golden Prey. It’s extremely rare to be good and prolific, but Sandford is. “Golden Prey”, in spite of the odds, is even better than his last Prey book, which was great. This is the best so far. Can’t wait for the next one.

Golden Prey. Snowbound in December, this read is almost perfect. You can identify with almost every character at one time or another. At least a little. The humor is great! The book is everything you bought it for, entertaining!

Tight. Another excellent Davenport novel.... Hard to put down, fast read.

Golden Prey. I’ve always loved John Sanders, but haven’t read him lately. I decided to see how many of the Prey series I’d missed and started catching up with Lucas Davenport. I’m sure glad I did. This one, Golden Prey, is filled with action, but I liked it best for the relationship that developed between Rae, Bob, and Lucas. Some lines between the three of them were so funny I had to laugh out loud, not just a chuckle. Great writing, a great book and a great series.

Sanford Never Disappoints. Once again, John Sanford, has written a story that is different from most of the genre. Most authors don't age their main characters and the stories are more of the same.Lucas Davenport ages and changes employment. Each book is a new and different story that makes a reader want to devour the entire book all at one time. In this story, Lucas spends his time in southern states as a US Marshal, instead of Minnesota and Iowa. The story is fast paced, action packed and leaves the reader wondering what's next. When the book ends, it leaves you waiting for the next.

Golden Prey. Absolutely terrific. Couldn't put it down.

Absolutely enjoyable!. Mr. Sanford has again proven that he’s a wonderful story teller. I was hooked when I read Rules of Prey so many years ago and I will continue to be a fan.

Excellent... Does not disappoint..... Exactly what we expect... tight plot, fast pace, true Davenport style... another excellent read from this author....

Golden Prey. I always enjoy reading about what trouble Lucas gets in and I wasn't disappointed. I even laughed out loud several times! I hope to find out about the girls and all the money in the next Davenport misadventure!

Excellent. Stanford is a very good writer and this is one of his best. A great read. You won't be disappointed.

Starts strong ends weakly. The opening hooked me early with an overall strong plot. The climax was predictable with frequent snippets of silly dialogue. The last scene post climax should have been edited out.

Golden Prey. Loved it, old school Lucas!

Still on Top. Excellent read, again. Fast-paced, difficult to put down.

Great Story. And great characters. One of Sandford's best!

Golden Prey. Lucas is like an old faithful friend. Sandford is great. Another terrific effort.

Sanford in good form. Lucas Davenport is great in his new job as US Marshall. A good read.

Golden prey. This is the best one yet. Couldn't put it down

Loved it!. Another awesome Lucas Davenport adventure. I couldn't put it down and am sad it's over! John Sanford has such an awesome brain! I'll be impatiently waiting for the next one....

Golden Prey. Another great book! Couldn't put it down. Liked the change of scenery to TN, AL, and TX. Already looking forward to the next one, whether it's Davenport or that F#*%#*g Flowers. :-)

As usual. One of the best crime creators in the book world. Putting this character on the screen would be a joyous occurance and would draw many more fans , if there can be.

Golden Prey. I'm always gratified to read the next #1 on all major best seller lists. John Sanford does it again and this may be his best.

Whew. What a ride. Sanford's books truly interfere with my life since I can't stop reading until the final page. Another wild and fun read. I love Lucas Davenport.

Golden Prey. Great read

Sanford Does it Again. This author never ceases to amaze. His switch to the U.S. Marshall's Office has opened a new venue for thrillers that have no boundaries. The introduction of Marshall's Rae and Bob should make for interesting character interchanges in future novels. I read this book in two sittings. A real page turner of the first class. Masterfully done Mr. Sanford.

A page turner. Once you start you can't stop until you're finished!!

One of my Favs. Couldn't drop this book. Totally worth it.

Golden Prey. Golden Prey is a blast from start to finish. I have read all the Prey books and this is a solid addition to this great series.

Golden prey. As always....a page turner. Excellent!

Lucas has his dream job!. Sandford has done it again. His books are consistently awesome and this one is set for fun, gun and stun! Don't miss it😋

Golden Prey. Another great read! Loved Rae and Bob. Hope they join a Lucas in another hunt. Keep writing!! Can not wait until the next one

Not Sandford!. There's no way Sandford wrote this. I've read every Prey book and this is not the same author. Terrible writing.

Buy it.. Another home run from John.

Golden Prey. Lucas Davenport is the man! Even is the story is slow, Lucas remains a great character. Liked the book & hope the 2 new partners are here to stay awhile. They added something different!

Golden Prey - Must Read. Very good book. Various plots with humor added at times. My first book by this author, will probably read more. Lucas Davenport is a no nonsense Deputy Marshal and his two associated deputies are just as effective.

Golden Prey. You keep writing them and I’ll keep reading-and buying-them! Absolutely great!

Love This New Journey!!!. Without exception, every book in this series has had me riveted. Sandford is one of only two or three authors whose books are so good that I've paid for every e-book in the entire series, again, after reading them in paperback when they were originally released. If this is your first Sandford novel, I'm jealous, because it's better than discovering a really good TV series and having eight seasons ahead of you. It doesn't matter if it's a book about Lucas Davenport, or if it's one of the novels about Virgil Flowers. John Sandford has, and continues to, surprise and delight his readers without ever missing a beat. Without question, he's one of the best writers in this genre. The depth of detail, and the pacing of his stories, make other popular, so-called "novelists" (James Patterson comes to mind) seem like first-round losers on an episode of Cake Boss. If you are a discerning reader, you will devour this latest offering.

Golden Prey. Terrific book! Lots of action, witty repartee and strong characters, and a plot that included a new location for Lucas Davenport.

Awesome. Lucas Davenport is my favorite law enforcement agent too! Great book

Best Davenport Novel in recent memory. I've read them all. This one had me hooked from the beginning.

Keeps getting better. I get so excited when I see another John Sanford "Prey" book on the Bestseller list. Once again he did not disappoint. I read this latest one in 2 days. Faced paced, slightly gruesome and laced with humor. Perfect if you are a Lucas Davenport fan. Cannot wait till the next one!

Another Lucas Davenport hit!. Exciting and entertaining. The perfect book to take on a vacation.

Babysitting for his wife? Seriously?. I know John Sanford writes about tough guys and had all this tough guy gratuitous sex, but please, could he just at least drop the I'm-a-rich-tough-guy facade and start getting serious about sexism. I've bought all of his books, but suspending my disbelief that any writer in this day and age could make a character so clueless is getting damned tiresome.

Golden Prey. Even though a bit of a departure from the other Prey novels, it still was an excellent read. I like the segue to Davenport's future endeavors to keep his character fresh, yet keep the familiarity of the previous Prey novels. Looking forward to more, and not so far in between, please!

Golden Prey. Boring, unimaginative book. Undeveloped characters that you don't care about. Really no twists or suspense at all. Just a long chase scene.

Pretty Darned Good!. Okay Sanford, this one was pretty good. They're ain't no LEOs in Texas that spell their last name Guiterrez. You messed that up. It's Gutierrez. Colossal mistake on your part. However, the Border Patrol sarcasm portrayed in your novel was true to form. BTW, ain't no Minnesota city/state ever gonna show Border Patrol how to catch bad guys. I'll chalk that up to your creative license.
