The thrillers of Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child "stand head and
shoulders above their rivals" (Publishers Weekly). Preston and
Child's Relic and The Cabinet of Curiosities were chosen by readers
in a National Public Radio poll as being among the one hundred
greatest thrillers ever written, and Relic was made into a
number-one box office hit movie. They are coauthors of the famed
Pendergast series and their recent novels include Fever Dream, Cold
Vengeance, Two Graves, and Gideon's Corpse. In addition to his
novels, Preston writes about archaeology for the New Yorker and
Smithsonian magazines. Lincoln Child is a former book editor who
has published five novels of his own, including the huge bestseller
Deep Storm.

entertaining note" from the authors, at their website,

alarmingly active Facebook page, where they post regularly.

works."--Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

if you enjoy things-that-go-bump-in-the-night thrillers, you'll
have fun reading it."--Washington Post Book World
