The Davenport books have changed over the years as Lucas has aged, and he certainly is not as active in them as he was when he was still a cop, but they are still page-turners and this one is no different. Randy Whitcomb, now a paraplegic, is out on parole and intends to get revenge on Lucas, whom he blames for his condition although Lucas did not shoot him. His plan is to kidnap Lucas' daughter Letty. Meanwhile, Lucas is working on the case of a gang of killer robbers who are hitting the Republican National Convention. Sandford expertly weaves the two storylines and then cleverly brings them together a thrilling climax. But what I enjoyed the most is the development of Letty's character - I can see her eventually growing into a series of her own!

This was a good book, kept thinking it would pick up the pace but it never did, not that it was super slow but it just felt like it needed a boost. Don't get all the swearing, seems like it is there just to be there. Over use in my opinion.

Good plot and characters, well written, (of course), Sandford gets you into his stories. This one was a good read, too.. . moves right along, fast paced, good police involement. This would be a great " Die Hard" type movie.

Lucas Davenport is focused on a gang of thieves planning something "huge" during the Republican convention in St. Paul. But, what he doesn't know is that the gang of thieves is not his biggest concern. A wheelchair-bound thug that Davenport put into prison years ago is looking for revenge and plans to exact his revenge on Davenport's daughter, Letty.
