He was the best at what he did. A chameleon, invisible...uncatchable. For how could you catch an invisible man?
It was a very cold, very clear morning in the Carlos Avery game reserve-cold enough to preserve the body lying there, clear enough so the state investigator couldn't miss it. There was something familiar about the stab wounds, she thought-but the Minneapolis police dismissed her theories, and the city's new police chief has problems enough of her own. The cops are wary of her, the public thinks she's too political, the feminists think she's sold out. And this damn murder just won't go away.
Caught in the middle, the chief turns to Lucas Davenport for help, and reluctantly, he agrees. Still recovering from his near-fatal wounds of the year before, trying for once in his life to settle down with one woman, Lucas has his own concerns, but something about this murder, and another like it-the body found in a dumpster this time-teases him,and the more he looks into them, the more he's sure the investigaotor is right. There is something disconcertingly familiar about the wounds not only in these two cases, but just maybe in several others as well. Somewhere out there lurks a killer of unusual skill and savagery. And if Lucas is right, he's just getting warmed up...”
“Living in my cocoon of life, I tend to forget about the seedier side of human nature. Sandford manages to open my eyes with each novel to some of the madness out there. The subject matter of this novel is more disturbing to me than the others, however, I was quite pleased with the outcome.

Whenever Lucas begins a new relationship, I get a little nervous for the women. Those who follow the series understand my concern. I like the character Weather. I am anxious to read the next in the series to see if this relationship develops or ends.
This is another winner for Sandford and a book a highly recommend for stimulating reading.”

“My favorite of the Sanford Prey books. It is where Lucas meets Weather.”

“I like the quick readability of the Sandford novels. His main character is a person that just about every upstanding citizen can like...man or woman. A man's man and a woman's man. James Garner could have played this part well, in his younger days. There are violent crimes, but the degree of explicity is contained, and I appreciate that. The fun is in figuring out if he will catch them or not...he doesn't always.”
