In the richest neighbourhood of Minneapolis, two elderly women lie murdered in their home, beaten to death with a metal pipe, the rooms ransacked, only small items stolen.

Fascinating Lucas Davenport Mystery
I like John Sandford's books as they usually are about areas of Minnesota and Wisconsin that I am familiar with. What made this mystery even more interesting was the antiques angle. And it is always a treat to see how Davenport figures the mystery out. This is a good summer read...enjoy!
