Description

Preston & Child continue their #1 bestselling series featuring FBI Special Agent Pendergast and Constance Greene, as they take a final stand against New York’s deadliest serial killer: Pendergast’s own ancestor and Constance’s greatest enemy.

A desperate bargain is broken

Constance Greene confronts Manhattan’s most dangerous serial killer, Enoch Leng, bartering for her sister's life—but she is betrayed and turned away empty-handed, incandescent with rage.

A clever trap is set

Unknown to Leng, Pendergast’s brother, Diogenes, appears unexpectedly, offering to help—for mysterious reasons of his own. Disguised as a cleric, Diogenes establishes himself in New York's notorious Five Points slum, manipulating events like a chess master, watching Leng’s every move … and awaiting his own chance to strike.

A vengeful angel will not be deterred

Meanwhile, as Pendergast focuses on saving the unstable Constance in her fanatical quest for vengeance, she strikes out on her own: to rescue her beloved siblings from a tragic fate and take savage retribution on Leng. But Leng is one step ahead and has a surprise for them all …

    What can I say, this one takes big leaps. But it delivers…. I would like some more context at times, but the premise & execution is simply 5d chess. Bravo!
  • Worst book written in the Pendergast series.

    The authors have apparently fallen in love with their descriptions of words.
    If this is what to expect there should be no more books written with these characters. The book is an insult to long time readers- a waste of time and energy.
    Avoid this book and the previous one as well.
    I’ve read every book by these authors.

    Preston and Childs don’t disappoint. Even when the story seems implausible, with sleight of hand, they magically leave you with a surprise to ponder. All the characters stories enter-twined to bring the reader to an exciting resolution. My only regret is that I must painfully wait for the next book.
  • Perverse and graphic
