Silent Prey audiobook – Lucas Davenport, Book 4

On a sunny afternoon, while lounging in my backyard hammock with a refreshing glass of lemonade, I found myself completely engrossed in the world of Silent Prey audiobook by John Sandford. The peaceful surroundings provided the perfect backdrop for this gripping mystery thriller.

The story takes place in the heart of New York City during a time of chaos and uncertainty. As someone who used to live near the city, I could vividly imagine the gritty atmosphere and the challenges faced by law enforcement. The subplot about the Robin Hood cops added an intriguing layer to the narrative, sparking thought-provoking debates about justice and vigilantism.

However, I must admit that this installment in the Lucas Davenport series didn’t quite meet my expectations. While I adore Lucas Davenport’s witty personality and clever investigative skills, Silent Prey focused heavily on the mind of the twisted antagonist, Bekker. Richard Ferrone’s narration brilliantly captured Bekker’s depravity, but it became overwhelming at times. I often found myself longing for more scenes with Lucas and his vibrant supporting cast.

Despite this minor disappointment, I couldn’t tear myself away from the book. The intricate plot and compelling exposition kept me hooked until the very end. John Sandford’s masterful storytelling combined with Richard Ferrone’s captivating narration created an immersive experience that left me wanting more.
