“Carlo Druze was a stone killer.”
A Pulitzer-winning American journalist, John Roswell Camp was asked to write the _Prey_ series of novels under the pseudonym John Sandford. With the popularity of that series, he continued to use the same pseudonym for subsequent novels, including even the sequels to Camp's earlier Kidd novels.
