Its been years since I read a Pendergast novel and this book showed me what I have been missing.Who thought Pendergast was married? Pendergast investigates his wife's murder which was perceived to be an hunting accident at first. And something weirdis going on with Constance Greene.Good addition to ...
2nd read: Oct 2012 - now rated 4-starsMy first read of this book wasn't terribly favorable. I was miffed at the authors for putting us back in the middle of another 3-book (trilogy) story arc.
