D'Agosta makes it his personal crusade to find out who attacked his friends, and that means delving into a series of apparent zombie attacks to find the truth. Joining forces with Pendergast, whose New Orleans background gives him a strong history in voodoo, the two men fight to uncover what a sinister cult may have to do with the attacks.

But when Nora is kidnapped, D'Agosta knows time is running out. He breaks rules and puts his life on the line to rescue her.

Wow! It is impossible to speak about this book without giving away a crucial piece of the plot. I can say that Preston and Child never write better than when they're working together on the Pendergast series. This book was chilling, fascinating and I didn't figure the ending! This is a must-read series for thriller/suspense fans. One of my favorites!
