Reseñas de la Crítica

"Smart, skillful writers who have fun spinning their tall tale, and if you enjoy things-that-go-bump-in-the-night thrillers, you'll have fun reading it."—Washington Post Book World

Another Winner

This is another great one with Pendergast as the main character that sets things straight.
Exciting and never a dull moment. Recommend this to anyone who is a Preston & Child fan. As always the characters are well developed and connect together with style.

Scott is great but ....

Scott is a great narrator but no one could do a southern drawl like Rene.

Spooky

This book frightened me and I am a senior citizen. In fact, I started reading it when my husband was out of town for a couple of days and I was alone at home. I became so spooked that I grabbed my pocketbook and two dogs, and fled to my daughter's house to spend the night. Thank goodness she lives only ten minutes away. I waiting until my husband came home and I could finish it in his presence. I needed a protector. Whenever I think back on this book, I still get a scared feeling. It had such a big impact on me.

I love FBI agent Pendergast and he is prominent in this book. He is brilliant and so different. I also like the young girl who plays a big part in the story. Strange and gruesome things are happening and no one can figure out what is going on. FBI agent Pendergast comes to the area to get a grasp on the situation. I can't exactly tell you what makes this book so scary, but it hit every terror bone in my body - people alone in the dark facing the unknown, being trapped in the dark, terrible things coming at you, hints of the supernatural and things that you cannot fight!!! Shiver, shiver, shake!! At some points it was too gruesome for my taste, but that could not stop me from charging forward to find out what in the world was going on.
