About this product

Product Information

In this #1 New York Times bestseller, FBI Agent Pendergast reluctantly teams up with a new partner to investigate a rash of Miami Beach murders . . . only to uncover a deadly conspiracy that spans decades. After an overhaul of leadership at the FBI's New York field office, A. X. L. Pendergast is abruptly forced to accept an unthinkable condition of continued employment: the famously rogue agent must now work with a partner. Pendergast and his new colleague, junior agent Coldmoon, are assigned to investigate a rash of killings in Miami Beach, where a bloodthirsty psychopath is cutting out the hearts of his victims and leaving them with cryptic handwritten letters at local gravestones. The graves are unconnected save in one bizarre way: all belong to women who committed suicide. But the seeming lack of connection between the old suicides and the new murders is soon the least of Pendergast's worries. Because as he digs deeper, he realizes the brutal new crimes may be just the tip of the iceberg: a conspiracy of death that reaches back decades.

Reviews
"If you'd like to know how Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes tales would be reviewed today, look no further than "City of Endless Night"... A typically terrific mystery laced with the gothic overtones for which this series is known...This is mystery thriller writing of the highest order, a tale as relentlessly riveting as it is sumptuously scintillating."-- Providence Sunday Journal, "Doug Preston and Lincoln Child's master detective A.X.L. Pendergast is every bit the modern equivalent of Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot. And his investigative skills have never been sharper than in the altogether brilliant VERSES FOR THE DEAD.... A throwback to classic crime fiction while maintaining a sharp, postmodern edge."-- Providence Journal, "This is mystery thriller writing of the highest order."-- Providence Journal, on CITY OF ENDLESS NIGHT, "The 18th installment in the Pendergast series by Preston and Child gives the hero a partner in the hunt for a strange killer... Pendergast is highly successful in closing cases on his own but 'was about as rogue as they came,' and suspects tend not to survive his investigations. Agent Coldmoon's secret assignment is to keep a close eye on his partner, 'a bomb waiting to go off' ... [VERSES FOR THE DEAD has] a nerve-wracking finish. Readers will love the quirky characters in this clever yarn. Pendergast and Coldmoon make an excellent pair. "-- Kirkus (starred review), "Multifaceted and complex. Legendary. Working together, Preston and Child are masters at crafting a story that goes beyond a simple mystery or thriller ... Readers unfamiliar with Pendergast will find this novel a fantastic launch point. He's a modern-day Sherlock Holmes, and the story reads like classic literature."-- Associated Press

I cannot find any 'cons'. It's always a long wait for me between Pendergast novels, but with this one, I was richly rewarded. Pendergast's non-verbals are so very telling. Not that I really have him figured out, but somehow you know when something is churning in his brain. I missed Vinnie, and I made an audible gasp at the name 'Smithback', but I found I increasingly liked Coldmoon…..oh, I look forward to many more!
