El agente especial del FBI, Aloysius X.L. Pendergast, regresa a su antigua mansión familiar en Luisiana. Tras deambular por sus jardines descuidados y aspirar en sus pasillos un ambiente húmedo y asfixiante, se detiene en la sala de armas, donde abre una vitrina para tocar por primera vez en doce años el rifle de su querida esposa Helen. Ayer, Pendergast lloraba la muerte de Helen, fallecida en un safari en África por el ataque de un león de crin roja. Hoy descubre que no fue una tragedia fruto del azar: alguien planeó el asesinato de su mujer. Pendergast conocerá a la verdadera Helen y su mente se torturará hasta averiguar quién le arrebató la vida. Fever Dream is a well written book. The suspense starts at the beginning of the book through the end. The characters are all likeable. It takes place on African safari with a deadly red maned lion and in the bayou of Louisiana and Mississippi. Five stars were awarded the most for a review. The book is highly recommended. I've enjoyed reading the Pendergast stories as much as other readers have. This one included. They are all good escapist fiction. My only quibble with the story in this novel - other than the not-quite-resolved ending - concerns the globetrotting by Pendergast and D'Agosta in the first part of the story. It almost seemed like the two of them were instantaneously traveling from one point to the next, with disproportionately small effort. While it enabled the two characters to gather important information, it felt a bit disjointed to me. But, now I'm ready to go on to read Two Graves! Finally, a dynamic Pendergast. By far, the best of the series I've read. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

As he probes more deeply into the riddle--the answer to which is revealed in a night of shocking violence, deep in the Louisiana bayou--he finds himself faced with an even greater question: who was the woman he married?
