This political thriller, featuring quirky Jacob Winter, kept me turning the pages all the way to the end. I usually get bored with stories with a heavy political theme. However, this book kept the political aspects fresh and relevant to the plot. Dead Watch was well written with a well developed storyline.

I like his books but find his "Prey" books to be a little too intense at times. This one could have used a little more intensity, but I enjoyed it.

A little slow going in comparison to some of his other books, but still good. If you are looking for something similar to the Kidd novels...this is not it..but a good stand alone novel.

I had not read any of John Sandford Novels and became very curious about this story. Right from the beginning I was captivated. I could not leave this story for too long. I thoroughly enjoy the way you just never knew what was going to happen next or who is was. It is a very good Novel to read and recommend this to all who love a good mystery.

This was my first book by Sandford and I'm not sure if I like him or not. I had a hard time getting through the story it felt very drawn out, but yet I wanted to know the ending. I want to say it was not well written but parts were. Also, he does not define his characters all that well. It was a good enough read that I will pick up another of his books.

Definitly different from the Prey series, Political this time, weak ending but a good story nonetheless.
