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…

Wonderful description of 19th century NYC. A fulfilling closure to the continued story arc. Provided an intriguing perspective of parallel timelines.

Another excellent Pendergast adventure

A satisfying finish to the events begun in the last book! This was an engaging, careful dance of intrigue by characters we've come to know well against a foe that was worthy of them. It's nice to feel that Pendergast and Constance actually had someone who was a bit of a challenge for them, at least for a moment, and the 1800's setting was delightful. It was a wonderful change of pace, and I enjoyed the solid adventure in a period bereft of modern technology and the simplicities and complications that it brings.  

As always, the authors have obviously put a great deal of research and thought into everything, and I deeply appreciate the masterful balance they strike between giving enough detail and surrounding information to engross and immerse you in the world of the story without giving so much that it becomes tedious or draws your attention away from the plot and the characters. That is harder to do than it seems, and once again they have pulled it off with aplomb!

I feel a mild consternation about some inconsistencies in Diogenes' characterization over the course of this series, but not enough to detract from the enjoyment of the ways he was utilized in this story. The fictional Lokis of the world are always interesting. How he went from where we last saw him to where he is now seems to me to be missing a chunk of intervening development, but the underlying framework was definitely there, so I'll just assume it happened "off screen". 

At the opposite end of the spectrum, this book reminds me once again how much I love D'Agosta, and why. Even if his role in this story was not extensive, he was absolutely necessary to maintain a feeling of heart and soul. He has been such a rock throughout this entire series and is used here to good effect to keep the grounded, warm, human element in place when surrounded by the often chilly heights of the Pendergast crew's semi-sociopathic genius. His interactions with Joe were some of my favorite parts of this book.

The narrator also did a fantastic job. Mr. Mays has developed a really good handle on voices, tone, and inflection for Pendergast, Constance, and the rest of the crew. Absolutely excellent narration! I felt immersed the whole time listening. 

Thoroughly Enjoyable

This was a great listen— excellent story, characters, and narration. As I disappeared into the story, I was struck with the amount and richness of the language used. The terms used to bring the settings of this period to life were so very accurate and were woven into the story in exactly the right way to immerse (and actually educate) the reader/listener without being at all clunky or distracting. This is something I have found with all the Preston & Child works— but it seemed even richer here.
I enjoyed it so much that I’m going to listen again right now—I suggest you do the same!

Don’t miss the details!

I loved how Constance got her revenge. I would have loved to find out about her siblings life after Constance left. And I loved how Diogenes, Pendergast and Constance worked together. Plus, I’m a sucker for happy endings.

It kept my interest. I loved the whole story.

Another enjoyable adventure in Pendergast’s world. This time Constance and Diogenes share the stage. I love these books. With mystery, suspense, atmosphere, twists and turns, wonderful descriptive prose that brings place, time and characters to incredible life, you can’t miss.

A great blend of strong personalities
