Author: Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child
Corrie Swanson, a protege of Pendergast, is working on her thesis. She heads to Colorado to investigate graves of miners killed 150 years in the past by a grizzly bear. She wants to document the types of injuries on the skeletal remains as part of her thesis. The town has exhumed the graves, preparing to move the cemetery as part of a development project. When she arrives, she finds town officials less than happy about her proposed project despite the fact the remains are already in storage. When Corrie is arrested and strange crimes start occurring in the resort town -- arson and murder -- Pendergast jumps in on the case to help.
This story was so interesting and entertaining! As usual there were a couple subplots going at once, and some side characters got to be up front and center this time. Great story! It definitely kept my attention from start to finish.
I listened to the audio book version of this story. Narrated by Rene Auberjonois, the audio is just shy of 13 hours long. Auberjonois gives a wonderful performance as usual. Great listening experience!
I'm glad I decided to re-visit this series from the beginning. I always enjoy books by Preston and/or Child!! On to the next book -- Blue Labyrinth!
