  • "Adrenalin pur: Lucas Davenport ermittelt wieder Die Republikaner haben zum Parteitag nach St. Paul, Minnesota, gerufen, und viele der mächtigsten Politiker Amerikas haben sich versammelt - einige von ihnen mit ganzen Aktenkoffern voller illegaler Parteispenden. Die Gelegenheit für Meisterdieb Brutus Cohn, einen grossen Coup zu landen. Sonderermittler Lucas Davenport soll das verhindern. Doch während dieser noch falschen Fährten folgt, gerät seine Familie ins Fadenkreuz eines Verrückten, der grausam Rache an Davenport nehmen will ... John Sandford ist das Pseudonym des mit dem Pulitzerpreis ausgezeichneten Journalisten John Camp. Seine Romane um den Polizisten Lucas Davenport erobern regelmässig die Top Ten der amerikanischen Bestsellerlisten. John Sandford lebt in Minneapolis."

  • "The Republicans are coming to St. Paul for their convention. Throwing a big party is supposed to be fun, but crashing the party are a few hard cases the police would rather stayed away. That's headache enough for Lucas Davenport--but what's about to hit him is worse. A while back, a stray bullet put pimp & petty thief Randy Whitcomb in a wheelchair, & he's been nursing his grudge into a full head of psychotic steam. He blames Davenport for the bullet, but it's no fun just shooting him. Not when Davenport has a pretty fourteen-year-old adopted daughter that Whitcomb can target instead."

Chief among them is a crew of professional stickup men who've spotted opportunities ranging from political moneymen with briefcases full of cash to that armored-car warehouse with the weakness in its security system. All that is headache enough for Lucas Davenport - but what's about to hit him is even worse."@en

With all that money around, grifters and professional thieves are much in evidence. But Davenport has a more pressing concern. A pimp and petty thief, seeking revenge for a stray bullet that landed him in a wheelchair, is targeting Davenport's fourteen-year-old adopted daughter."
  • ""The 2008 Republican convention serves as the backdrop for bestseller Sandford's amped-up, ultra-violent 19th thriller to feature Lucas Davenport of the Minneapolis Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (after Phantom Prey). An assassination plot aimed at John McCain turns out to be just a sidebar to another criminal operation?extremely slick thieves have come to the twin cities to rob Republican political operatives loaded down with millions of dollars of street money, illegal handouts for low-level campaign workers. Mastermind Rosie Cruz handles the gang's complicated planning, while gangster Brutus Cohn does the robbery and killing aided by a couple of lesser thugs. A subplot involving Davenport's teenage ward, Letty West, who's provided interesting complications in the series, establishes her as a brave and intrepid investigator. A slam-bang shootout climax proves that Davenport still has what it takes when it comes to guts and gunplay."--Publisher's weekly."@en
