Book Synopsis

Twelve years ago, Special Agent Pendergast's beloved wife was murdered during an African safari -- and now, he's on a quest for revenge.
Devastated by the discovery that his wife, Helen, was murdered, Special Agent Pendergast must have retribution. But revenge is not simple. As he stalks his wife's betrayers--a chase that takes him from the wild moors of Scotland to the bustling streets of New York City and the darkest bayous of Louisiana--he is also forced to dig further into Helen's past. And he is stunned to learn that Helen may have been a collaborator in her own murder.

Peeling back the layers of deception, Pendergast realizes that the conspiracy is deeper, goes back generations, and is more monstrous than he could have ever imagined--and everything he's believed, everything he's trusted, everything he's understood . . . may be a horrific lie.

    When I realized there was another Agent P book out there, I could not wait until I had my grubby digital hands on it! Was fantastic. Read it on every lunch hour, and as soon as I got home before going to bed. Just finished-Friday, May 17, 2013. Thank you and I eagerly await the next book with my favorite Special Agent!

    By boysmumas Excellent novel with Pendergast and all characters of these terrific novels. Why must we subject ourselves to these Gideon Sword and Gideon Corpse novels. They are boring and dull. Now I must wait until December to finish my quest with Pendergast. We don't need anymore characters in anymore plots to divert our thoughts from Pendergast. You've got a great thing going please don't spoil it with introducing anymore investigators as diversions with other characters. Stick with a proven track record.

    As a fan of the Pendergast books, this was the only one that was really a let down. Some of the "action" scenes went on for so long that I started to skim them. Still, it would have been a good read, except that the end did not just leave the reader hanging. It left the whole story hanging. Yes, it's part of a trilogy, but NO conclusion at all? Two major characters are in life-threatening situations and… DONE. That's a cheap shot. I'd have waited to buy two books at once if I had known that this one did not stand on it's own.
