Lucas Davenport and Virgil Flowers join forces to track down a ruthless killer who will do whatever it takes to keep the past buried, in this latest thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author John Sandford.
Doris Grandfelt, an employee at an accounting firm, was brutally stabbed to death . . . but nobody knew exactly where the crime took place. Her body was found the next night, dumped among a dense thicket of trees along the edge of an urban park, eight miles east of St. Paul, Minnesota. Despite her twin sister Lara Grandfelt’s persistent calls to the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, the killer was never found.
Twenty years later, Lara has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Confronted with the possibility of her own death, she’s determined to find Doris’s killer once and for all. Finally taking matters into her own hands, she dumps the entire investigative file on every true-crime site in the world and offers a $5 million reward for information leading to the killer’s arrest. Dozens of true-crime bloggers show up looking for both new evidence and “clicks,” and Lucas Davenport and Virgil Flowers are called in to review anything that might be a new lead.
When one of the bloggers locates the murder weapon, Lucas and Virgil begin to uncover vital details about the killer’s identity. But what they don’t know is the killer lurks in plain sight, and with the true-crime bloggers blasting every clue online, the killer can keep one step ahead. As the nation maneuvers the detectives closer to the truth, Lucas and Virgil will find that digging up Doris’s harrowing past might just get them buried instead.

As others have commented I also found this “non ending” to be extremely disappointing. I could even have accepted
it if Fisk had been found not guilty because the good guys don’t win everytime.
Oh well real life isn’t always fair and straight forward so I suppose this book is similar to that.
My big question is “will I bother to wait and see if there is another book?” Probably not is my answer as I write this.
Please write us a sequel. All that work for Lucas and Virgil and no real conclusion. The good guys have to win. Please let us know.
I too am disappointed in the ending. I have read ALL of his novels and this is a great dissapointment. Will the novel ever be completed????
Mr. Camp, I’ve read all your Prey books. Please confirm you’ll be writing a sequel. If NO, please convince John Gresham to do it for you. I’ll check back occasionally to see your response.
I am so disappointed that I read a book that had no ending. It’s a shoddy and cheap way to sell books, and I may never touch another Sandford Book.
Very annoyed to be left hanging!
The “end” of the book was disappointing. I felt cheated because it clearly isn’t the end. It feels like John Sandford wanted to sell 2 books for one story.
I sure hope there is a sequel to the Lethal Prey book!! Would love to know the disposition of the trial!!
Will there be a sequel to find out the result of the trial? Leaves the book incomplete after all the investigating that was done.
Ending of the book is questionable
