Fiction. Mystery. Suspense. Thriller. HTML:Letty Davenport, the brilliant and tenacious adopted daughter of Lucas Davenport, takes the investigative reins in the newest thriller from #1 bestselling author John Sandford.
 
??Sandford fans rejoice! Davenport next generation has arrived and Letty is exactly the kind of cool-eyed, smart-mouthed, lethally dangerous heroine we??ve been waiting for.? ??Lisa Gardner, author of One Step Too Far
By age twenty-four, Letty Davenport has seen more action and uncovered more secrets than many law enforcement professionals. Now a recent Stanford grad with a master??s in economics, she??s restless and bored in a desk job for U.S. Senator Colles. Letty??s ready to quit, but her skills have impressed Colles, and he offers her a carrot: feet-on-the-ground investigative work, in conjunction with the Department of Homeland Security. 
 
Several oil companies in Texas have reported thefts of crude, Colles tells her.  He isn??t so much concerned with the oil as he is with the money: who is selling the oil, and what are they doing with the profits? Rumor has it that a fairly ugly militia group might be involved. Colles wants to know if the money is going to them, and if so, what they??re planning. 
 
Letty is partnered with a DHS investigator, John Kaiser, and they head to Texas.  When the case quicky turns deadly, they know they??re on the track of something bigger.  The militia group has set in motion an explosive plan . . .

Not my preferred genre, too frenetic, the characterization somewhat superficial, but the writing is tight. The two investigators (Kaiser and Davenport) are also a bit over-the-top "tough guys & gals" though quite engaging. The plot has a potentially improbable "2-investigators left without back-up" to cope with a serious situation. The actions of the far right militia, intolerant and violent, does resonate in real life developments. Scary thought! ( )

It had been years since I’ve read a John Sandford book. As always I really enjoy his character development. I’m always able to enjoy the protagonist’s and dislike the villain’s. I find myself feeling sorry sometimes for the villains until they do something to remind me why I feel the way I do. Will I catch up with all the books I’ve missed? Yes, I will. ( )

I'm a tad biased because I've read everything John Sandford has written. I feel like I've known main character Lucas Davenport's adopted daughter, Letty, since she was a child. Well, she's all grown up now and she's turned into her dad. In a good way...unless you're a criminal. Looking forward to this series. Expecting Letty to team up with Virgil Flowers soon! ( )

Another great John Sandford book starring Letty Davenport. She is a wonderful addition to the Davenport family sagas as she’s clever, experienced, and fearless. Sandford writes with a fun humor that sneaks up in the character dialogue. A great read in this ongoing series!

Thanks to NetGalley and Canelo for the opportunity to read this excellent ARC. ( )
