A TRAGIC DISAPPEARANCE After a harrowing, otherworldly confrontation on the shores of Exmouth, Massachussetts, Special Agent A.X.L. Pendergast is missing, presumed dead. A SHOCKING RETURN Sick with grief, Pendergast's ward, Constance, retreats to her chambers beneath the family mansion at 891 Riverside Drive--only to be taken captive by a shadowy figure from the past. AN INTERNATIONAL MANHUNT Proctor, Pendergast's longtime bodyguard, springs to action, chasing Constance's kidnapper through cities, across oceans, and into wastelands unknown. BUT IN A WORLD OF BLACK AND WHITE, NOTHING IS AS IT SEEMS And by the time Proctor discovers the truth, a terrifying engine has stirred-and it may already be too late . . .

Mehso-so

One word: disappointing. This is Pendergast lite. I‘m not sure where we go from here, but I‘m definitely continuing with the series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book started a bit slow. Pendergast is presumed dead after the events of the last book. Constance is kidnapped by Diogenes, and Proctor goes after her. Once we get back to Pendergast, the story picks up. We find out how he survived, and then he goes after Constance. This book is more an ode to the Pendergast family back story. The elixir that prolonged Constance's life comes into play, as they try to recreate the formula.

Book #16 in the agent Pendergast series. This one was a great follow up to the previous and really takes the reader to some far flung places. You‘re left until the end to figure out how things turn out...and then left wondering if that really is the end.

After a longggggggg week at work and an put of town wedding this weekend, I really needed to decompress (plus I actually managed to walk into a door frame at 4am and have a lump on my forehead).
So, after I drove home, I went to see The Predator (in the theater there were 10 men and me). Then I went across the parking lot to B&N and got two bargain books and a piece of cheesecake. Now I am home relaxing. I needed this.

MaleficentBookDragon I just realized I already read this one. Sigh. 😒 6y
mcipher At least you have the cheesecake! That‘s so frustrating, I hate when I start a new book that turns out not to be “new”. 6y

Audiobooks has become my ultimate go to for traveling. Thanks to @nypl and @overdrive_libs! It's amazing and I never thought I would get so into it. Who else loves them? Also- Pendergast is just one of my favorite sleuths! So needless to say, I enjoyed this. #nypl #audiobook#listening #bookstagram #book#bookworm #library #librarybooks

BookishMe Do you read the series in order? 7y
Bengali.bookworm Not really. My first one was Cemetery Dance ( really good) so I just continued to pick up which ever copy is in front of me 😊 7y

Preston & Child's Pendergast novels never disappoint. Always full of intrigue and adventure. Really enjoyed this one, the 16th in the series.

Two. I need two more books. Why can't I just read all day every day 😱😫

athorne Find two relatively short ones! 7y
Eyelit Totally doable! Find a novella or two - or try a couple graphic novels. 😃 7y
Sarahr875 @Eyelit and @EMJenkinson I need to do that. I have two that I want to be the ones I finish this year so I'm going to try hard to finish them. If, on Saturday, I fail, I'll read to shortie mcshort books or graphic novels!!! 7y
Sarahr875 Update: I now only have one left 🎉 7y
WanderingBookaneer Graphic novels! 7y

My boyfriend's football ? team is playing. So, of course I'm reading and murmuring "yeah I saw that" or "that sucked" every once in a while. I'll probably get the book finished; which is good because I'm a few days late at the library. #latefees

mcipher My mom always says that late fees are like your dues to the library. I try to think that because I am ALWAYS paying #latefees 🙄 7y

I'm not a zombie, but I'd totally go for FBI Special Agent Aloysius Xingu L. Pendergast for his brains. I can't wait to find out what he's up to in this installment of the series which will be out in a coupla weeks. #octphotochallenge

brendanmleonard This is one of my favorite characters - even though I've only read the first few in the series! I've wanted a movie with Paul Bettany for a long time. 8y
stacybmartin I love this series too - they should make a Netflix or HBO series with him! 8y
MMenefee @brendanmleonard @stacybmartin Paul Bettany! Netflix! Yes!! 8y
Onceuponatime @brendanmleonard @stacybmartin @MMenefee They are developing a Pendergast series for TV! I for one can't wait for it! 😍 8y
MMenefee @Onceuponatime I hope they learn from that past film mistake that is The Relic (which is so forgetful I have confused it w/Mimic). 8y
