Cemetery Dance, Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child

Bestsellers Preston and Child kill off a regular supporting character at the outset of this suspenseful tale of urban terror, their ninth to feature FBI special agent Aloysius Pendergast (after The Wheel of Darkness). William Smithback, a New York Times reporter, and his wife, Nora Kelly, an anthropologist with the New York Museum of Natural History, are celebrating their first anniversary when Smithback is fatally stabbed in their Manhattan apartment, apparently by a creepy neighbor, Colin Fearing, an out-of-work British actor. Given eyewitness descriptions of the killer, including one from Kelly herself, as well as surveillance footage showing a blood-stained Fearing emerging from the apartment building right after the crime, the case appears to be open and shut—until Pendergast and his NYPD ally, Lt. Vincent D'Agosta, learn that Fearing died almost two weeks earlier. This taut page-turner can only add to the authors' growing fan base.

I complained to Douglas about the killing of Smithback; I LIKED SMITHBACK! Any journalist worthy of the name would return from the grave to accept an award.

i think val kilmer with bleached blonde hair and his accent from Tombstone would work for Pendergast

[Casshyr]

while I like their first few books, I think sometimes they stray too much into the unknown and do not provide enough scientific explanation to what they propose. An example would be Wheel of Darkness.

i read formula, darkness and maniac ... so good stuff

greetings from germany ^^

They're both amazing writers. Together they create an amazing world, but alone they're equally great. "Terminal Freeze" gave me goosebumps and "Jennie" almost made me cry.

@MapOfYourHead135 aaahhh don't worry u won't read any spoilers here from me..but trust me Fever Dream is excellent..I don't understand your last statement to me...they r writing a new book, with a new character named Gideon Crew..Preston and Douglas don't go anymore into details of this new character...Trust me there are other books with Pender and D'Agosta the older ones I haven't read yet...When u read Fever Dream it explains it all at the end of the book/chapter..
