PENDERGAST the Begining by Preston & Child

 

This is an origin story for Pendergast.  Note, I said, “an origin” story. This goes back to Pendergast’s beginings in the FBI. It does not delve deeper into how he ended up in the FBI.  The story takes place in New Orleans. A serial killer is running amok under the radar of local law enforcement. Pendergast identifies the crime and eventually the killer.

 

In a typical Preston and Child book, one comes to expect nuances, abundant misdirection, and intricate plots.  This book admirably continues those practices. 

 

I’ve read books written individually by the authors, but I feel that when they work collaboratively, their work is superior.

 

I enjoyed this book and highly recommend it.
