The 3rd in the Prey series featuring Lucas Davenport. A psychotic pathologist hopped up on multiple illegal drugs hires an actor to kill his wife, and in exchange he'll kill the theater director who dislikes the actor. That wasn't a spoiler, since as usual Sandford has the POV of both killers plus Lucas Davenport. Davenport is battling depression and PTSD from events in the last book, but this case is interesting enough to break him out of it. Lots of action, not too much focus on gore but a lot on the various drugs, and a couple twists at the end. No problems if a new reader wanted to start with this book, there's plenty of explanation without interrupting the action.
