Adults

“Twisted Prey” by John Sandford. Lucas Davenport had crossed paths with her before.

Once a psychopath had gotten that kind of rush, though, he or she often needed another fix, so he figured he might be seeing her again.

He was right. A federal marshal now, with a very wide scope of investigation, he’s heard rumors that Grant has found her seat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, and the contacts she’s made from it, to be very ... useful.
