Fiction. Thriller. HTML:

After his wife, Helen, is brazenly abducted before his eyes, Special Agent Pendergast furiously pursues the kidnappers, chasing them across the country and into Mexico. But then, things go terribly, tragically wrong; the kidnappers escape; and a shattered Pendergast retreats to his New York apartment and shuts out the world. But when a string of bizarre murders erupts across several Manhattan hotelsperpetrated by a boy who seems to have an almost psychic ability to elude captureNYPD Lieutenant D'Agosta asks his friend Pendergast for help. Reluctant at first, Pendergast soon discovers that the killings are a message from his wife's kidnappers. But why a message? And what does it mean? When the kidnappers strike again at those closest to Pendergast, the FBI agent, filled anew with vengeful fury, sets out to track down and destroy those reponsible. His journey takes him deep into the trackless forests of South America, where he ultimately finds himself face to face with an old evil thatrather than having been eradicatedis stirring anew...and with potentially world-altering consequences. Confucius once said: "Before you embark on a journey of revenge, first dig two graves." Pendergast is about to learn the hard way just how true those words still ring.

I. Love. Pendergast. Great book, lots of suspense, and some loose ends are tied up towards the end. ( )

Great story arc, in the middle of this series, which I'm sure has not come completely to an end.
And one or 2 of those 'I'll explain it all to you later...' deals that drive me nuts because they almost never do, were explained. FINALLY!!!

Después de presenciar el rapto de su mujer en Central Park, el agente especial del FBI Aloysius Pendergast persigue desesperadamente a los secuestradores por el país hasta llegar a México.
Sin embargo, todo sale trágicamente mal: los malhechores logran escapar, y Pendergast, destrozado, regresa a su apartamento en Nueva York para aislarse del mundo. Mientras tanto, en los hoteles de Manhattan se está cometiendo una serie de extraños asesinatos. En cada caso, las cámaras de seguridad captan imágenes claras de un joven pelirrojo, atlético, elegante y bien parecido que se mueve sin prisas por los pasillos de los distintos hoteles. Deja sus huellas, pelos y fibras en el escenario del crimen, pero siempre elude a la policía. Cuando el teniente Vincent d'Agosta acude a Pendergast, el agente no demuestra ningún interés por los hechos hasta que se fija en el modus operandi del asesino: escribe un mensaje en cada cadáver, y estos mensajes se dirigen solamente a él.

Two Graves by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child is one of the best suspense books that I have ever listened to. There are several suspenseful stories within the book concluding the stories from the previous book, Cold Vengeance. Special Agent Pendergast finds himself in an impossible situation that require his special in order to solve a Nazi mystery. Parts of the book are believable, the characters are wonderful both good and bad, the settings are mostly believable but the book is an excellent way to escape troubles of everyday life. Five stars were awarded to this book. Enjoy. ( )

The previous two books in the "Helen" trilogi wasn't the best ones Preston and Child has written but this last book was not really good and I loved Corrie in "Still Life with Crows", but I don't understand the point with the subplot with her. ( )
