Book Reviews of Brimstone (Pendergast, Book 5)

Book Review: not their best
Summary: 3 Stars

I've read most of their work and Pendergast is one of my favorite modern day literary characters, but this was one of their weaker efforts. It dragged in the middle and seemed to sidetrack a bit too much and lacked the punch I usually expect. The end was very good reading and a setup for their next book Dance of Death which I have already picked up and will start on right away.

Summary of Brimstone (Pendergast, Book 5)

A body is found in the attic of a fabulous Long Island estate. There is a hoofprint scorched into the floor, and the stench of sulfur chokes the air. When FBI Special Agent Pendergast investigates the gruesome crime, he discovers that thirty years ago four men conjured something unspeakable. Has the devil come to claim his due?
Behind the gates of a fabulous Hampton estate, FBI Special Agent Pendergast discovers the carnage of a gruesome crime-a nightmare of seemingly supernatural origin. The smoldering remains of infamous art critic Jeremy Grove, a melted cross branding his chest, are found in a locked, barricaded attic. The hoofprint singed into the floorboards and the smell of brimstone recall the legendary horrors that befall those who make a pact with the Devil.

Reuniting with police officers Vincent D'Agosta and Laura Hayward, Pendergast combs New York hoping for a simple explanation: a villain who is merely a man. But his search takes him beyond the exclusive clubs and luxury penthouses of Manhattan to a crumbling, legend-shrouded castle in the Italian countryside, where thirty years ago four men conjured something...unspeakable.

Featuring bone-chilling suspense and Preston and Child's trademark meticulous research and vivid detail, BRIMSTONE is the duo's-and Pendergast's-most dangerous and gripping adventure yet.
