Back to psychopathic serial killer territory for Lucas Davenport. A long-abandoned cistern is discovered with the remains of over 20 young women in it, all tortured and murdered over an unknown period of time. Davenport starts out by observing from the sidelines but before long has to take charge of the investigation. All the regular characters have at least a speaking part. As usual, it's a fast read and follows the successful Sandford formula. I'll say that while the body count in these is always high, women cops really don't seem to fare well.
