Cold Vengeance
Cold Vengeance | Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child
10 posts | 39 read | 3 to read
Devastated by the discovery that his wife, Helen, was murdered, Special Agent Pendergast must have retribution. But revenge is not simple. As he stalks his wife's betrayers--a chase that takes him from the wild moors of Scotland to the bustling streets of New York City and the darkest bayous of Louisiana--he is also forced to dig further into Helen's past. And he is stunned to learn that Helen may have been a collaborator in her own murder. Peeling back the layers of deception, Pendergast realizes that the conspiracy is deeper, goes back generations, and is more monstrous than he could have ever imagined--and everything he's believed, everything he's trusted, everything he's understood . . . may be a horrific lie.

This is Pendergast #11 and the 2nd book in the Helen trilogy. And the question is. Did Pendergast know his wife at all? Because I'm not sure he did 🤷🏼‍♀️

This is book 11 in the Pendergast series. It‘s really hard to review a book this far in a series. Add to it that it‘s the middle book in the Helen trilogy and it‘s even harder. It felt like a middle book and ends in a cliff hanger so I will pick up book 12 soon. I enjoyed the return of a character from Still Life With Crows (book 4). I also hope I‘m wrong about what has happened to another minor but regular character. (Is that a spoiler?)

Bookzombie @TheAromaofBooks This was my #Doublespin for May. 😄 1y
vivastory I have read only one Pendergast book. I remember that I liked it but I had a really hard time picturing Pendergast. I kept picturing him as a blonde Benedict Cumberbatch. 😂 1y
Bookzombie @vivastory Hmm, he is tall, slim, pale and blonde so I can see BC as him but with a Southern accent. Rene Auberjonois reads the series and he has the accent down. I just went to look up how to spell his last name and saw that he died in 2019 🙁 so I don‘t know who has been reading the current ones. I‘m so far behind that they are on book 21 and spun off a character into her own series. Lol. 1y
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! 1y

Listening to this audiobook, and I'm loving it. I love this series, and the storyline are always intriguing.

I always love Agent Pendergast, but this felt very much like the middle book of a trilogy... lots of build up, very few answers. Of course it left off on a cliffhanger, so I will be reading the next book soon. I did like the narrator though - he did a great job with all the accents.

The kids are napping, so I'm enjoying a brief #audiostitching break. This little bird is so cute!

CoverToCoverGirl Beautiful! I‘m curious, what are the blue squares on your aida cloth. I‘ve not seen that before. 3y
Johanna414 @CoverToCoverGirl i just mark out the 10x10 squares with a water soluble marker before I start stitching. I make all sorts of counting mistakes if I dont lol 3y
CoverToCoverGirl Interesting, I didn‘t realize that was a thing. I‘ve been stitching since 1987 and still love it. Might give this a try. 3y
jb72 It looks lovely! I‘m hoping to get some audiostitching into today as well. 3y

Book #11 in the Agent Pendergast series. Great book...you learn so much about Pendergast and there is so much mystery that even he is having a hard time figuring out. It ends on a total cliff-hangar though...so now I need to get the next book ASAP!

Used bookstore #bookhaul today. Yes, I already own The Unquiet Dead in paperback and Kindle, but I can use the hardback as my excuse to buy A Dangerous Crossing in print in 2/13 instead of just Kindle and waiting for the paperback to release later. #idonothaveaproblem #makesperfectsense
