    “Crime fiction doesn’t have nearly enough droll master thieves like Kidd and his stunning partner in righteous crime, LuEllen.”—Los Angeles Times

    When Kidd—artist, computer whiz, and professional criminal—learns of a colleague’s murder, he doesn’t buy the official story: that a jittery security guard caught the hacker raiding the files of a high-tech Texas corporation. It’s not what his friend was looking for that got him killed. It’s what he already knew. For Kidd and LuEllen, infiltrating the firm is the first move. Discovering the secrets of its devious entrepreneur is the next. But it’s more than a secret—it’s a conspiracy. And it’s landed Kidd and LuEllen in the cross-hairs of an unknown assassin hellbent on conning the life out of the ultimate con artists....
    “Fascinating…crime fiction doesn’t have nearly enough droll master thieves like Kidd and his stunning partner in righteous crime, LuEllen.” —The Los Angeles Times

    “Plenty of stirring action…edgy and provocative…Kidd’s return [is] welcome news for Sandford fans.” —Publishers Weekly

    “Filled with great atmosphere, characters, and exceptional drama, The Devil’s Code is truly vintage Sandford.” —The Stuart News (Stuart, FL)

    “Sandford obviously loves Kidd, taking him to humorous and/or technological extremes.”—Fort Worth Star-Telegram

    “Good thrillers are usually character-driven, and The Devil’s Code is a good thriller.”—Minneapolis Star Tribune

    “[The Devil’s Code] is action-filled and good fun.” —St. Petersburg Times
    John Sandford is the pseudonym for the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist John Camp. He is the author of the Prey novels, the Kidd novels, the Virgil Flowers novels, and six other books, including three YA novels co-authored with his wife Michele Cook. View titles by John Sandford
