Dance of Death [Paperback]

Two FBI agents, a serial killer who stages his murders like Renaissance paintings, and a hunt that turns into psychological warfare. Pendergast and D'Agosta are back, but this time the prey is personal — Pendergast's own brother, Diogenes, a genius sociopath with a vendetta twenty years in the making. Bodies drop in elaborately choreographed tableaux across New York City while Diogenes plays a game only he understands. The investigation spirals from the Metropolitan Museum to the city's forgotten tunnels, each crime scene more disturbing than the last. This is thriller writing that treats readers like adults — no hand-holding, no tidy answers, just two men locked in a battle where intellect is the only weapon that matters. For fans of Thomas Harris's elegance and James Rollins's relentless pacing.
