Program Description

Event Details

#1 New York Times-Bestselling Author John Sandford will be stopping by for a virtual visit to talk about his new book, Ocean Prey.  Best-selling author, Carl Hiaasen, will be interviewing John.

Fan-favorite heroes Lucas Davenport and Virgil Flowers join forces in OCEAN PREY, the latest propulsive and electrifying adventure from #1 New York Times-bestselling author John Sandford. In the 31st entry in the Prey series and the 13th book to star Virgil Flowers, the killings of three federal officers at sea ignite an investigation into a maritime drug cartel—with deadly consequences. G. P. Putnam’s Sons is thrilled to publish this latest installment on April 13, 2021.

An off-duty Coast Guardsman is fishing with his family when he calls in some suspicious behavior from a nearby boat. It's a snazzy craft, slick and outfitted with extra horsepower, and is zipping along until it slows to pick up a surfaced diver . . . a diver who was apparently alone, without his own boat, in the middle of the ocean. None of it makes sense unless there's something hinky going on, and his hunch is proved right when all three Guardsmen who come out to investigate are shot and killed.

They're federal officers killed on the job, which means the case is the FBI's turf. When the FBI's investigation stalls out, they call in Lucas Davenport. And when his case turns lethal, Davenport will need to bring in every asset he can claim, including a detective with a fundamentally criminal mind: Virgil Flowers.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

John Sandford is the pseudonym for the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist John Camp. He is the author of twenty-nine Prey novels; four Kidd novels; twelve Virgil Flowers novels; three YA novels coauthored with his wife, Michele Cook; and three other books.
