Two young girls disappeared in the '80s and their bodies were never recovered; until now. When an older house is demolished to make way for a new condo development, the girls' mummified remains are discovered.
Lucas Davenport was just a young rookie working the case when the girls first went missing. Twenty-five years later he's back on the case and determined to solve it this time.
Let me preface this by saying that I've read almost every book John Sandford has written, including the ones starring that "effing Virgil Flowers". And I've enjoyed most of Sandford's books immensely.
BURIED PREY is a solid mystery, but the annoying young Lucas Davenport presented in the flashbacks to the original case detracts from the story line. He's arrogant, self-centered and a bit of a dandy. Lucky for us he grew up to be such an intelligent likable character or Sandford may not have had so many fans for his PREY novels.
