The Wheel of Darkness



The Wheel of Darkness. by Douglass Preston and Lincoln Child

Pendergast has taken Constance on a whirlwind Grand Tour, hoping to give her closure
and a sense of the world that she's missed. They head to Tibet, where Pendergast
intensively trained in martial arts and spiritual studies. At a remote monastery, they learn
that a rare and dangerous artifact the monks have been guarding for generations has
been mysteriously stolen. Pendergast agrees to take up the search. The trail leads him
and Constance to the maiden voyage of the Queen Victoria, the world's largest and most
luxurious passenger liner--and to an Atlantic crossing fraught with terror.

I have read all but one of the 'Pendergast' series to this one in order.  They can be creepy, authentic, and riveting.  They are always just real enough to keep me from feeling they are too fantastic.  Wheel of Darkness was no exception.  And it will hold you riveted at least from page 350 through 470.

Enjoy!  *****
