Angel of Vengeance
By Douglas Preston & Lincoln ChildPublisher Description
Preston & Child continue their #1 bestselling series featuring FBI Special Agent Pendergast and Constance Greene, as they take a final stand against New York’s deadliest serial killer: Pendergast’s own ancestor…and Constance’s greatest enemy.
A desperate bargain is broken…
Constance Greene confronts Manhattan’s most dangerous serial killer, Enoch Leng, bartering for her sister's life – but she is betrayed and turned away empty-handed, incandescent with rage.
A clever trap is set…
Unknown to Leng, Pendergast’s brother, Diogenes, appears unexpectedly, offering to help—for mysterious reasons of his own. Disguised as a cleric, Diogenes establishes himself in New York's notorious Five Points slum, manipulating events like a chess master, watching Leng’s every move…and awaiting his own chance to strike.
A vengeful angel will not be deterred…
Meanwhile, as Pendergast focuses on saving the unstable Constance in her fanatical quest for vengeance, she strikes out on her own: to rescue her beloved siblings from a tragic fate and take savage retribution on Leng. But Leng is one step ahead and has a surprise for them all…

“I have been a huge fan of this series since accidentally coming across White Fire- realizing it was part of a series. I went back and have re-read the entire series quite a few times.
I am still trying to put my feelings together for this book. Is it the end of the series? I hope not. Does it close a few story lines? Yes. And opens a new one and that I’m not sure how I feel about it.
Angel of Vengeance picks up where The Cabinet of Dr. Leng leaves off, and I will say I was really getting sick of Constance before these two books, however I am now understanding her a little more. She is finally able to close the book so to speak on her past, right the wrong.
There are still story lines to wrap up so i do hope Pendergast isn’t over.”

“Yet another five star book by the dynamic duo of Preston and Child! I have read all the books and I admit, I'm a bit in love with Pendergast. Even after all these years he still has mystery surrounding him. This book takes off with a bang and keeps on banging. Constance is her usual amazing self and we see just how far she goes to protect her family. I could go on and on but I won't. Read it for yourself, pick it up and you will lose yourself for a few hours, get no sleep and want more. Highly recommended! Thank you netgalley and publisher for providing an arc for my honest review.”
