Dark Angel by John Sandford
DARK ANGEL by John Sandford is the second in a series about Letty Davenport and it
is an engrossing adventure filled with memorable characters and plenty of armed
violence in the name of doing good. Letty acts as a consultant to the US
government and is paired with Baxter, a computer nerd for NSA, in an attempt to
find and infiltrate a group of idealistic hackers. Danger increases as Russian
security forces join the hunt and begin targeting some of the group members. Letty
is a strong, self-reliant protagonist who reminded me of characters in novels
like Quinn’s The Diamond Eye, Box’s Treasure State, and Paretsky’s Overboard.
I enjoyed DARK ANGEL so much
that I plan to listen to The Investigator,
Letty’s first adventure. Sanford is an award-winning author probably best known
for his Prey series featuring Lucas
Davenport, Letty’s father.
