Masked Prey, Paperback/John Sandford

Lucas Davenport tracks a prolific serial killer in this nail-biting #1 New York Times -bestseller from John Sandford . Clayton Deese looks like a small-time criminal, muscle for hire when his loan shark boss needs to teach someone a lesson. Now, seven months after a job that went south and landed him in jail, Deese has skipped out on bail, and the U.S. Marshals come looking for him. They don't much care about a low-level guy--it's his boss they want--but Deese might be their best chance to bring down the whole operation. Then, they step onto a dirt trail behind Deese's rural Louisiana cabin and find a jungle full of graves. Now Lucas Davenport is on the trail of a serial killer who has been operating for years without notice. His quarry is ruthless, and--as Davenport will come to find--full of surprises . . . About author(s): John Sandford is the pseudonym for the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist John Camp.
