In downtown Manhattan, a gruesome discovery has just been made-an underground charnel house containing the bones of dozens of murder victims. Research reveals that a serial killer was at work in New York's notorious Five Points neighborhood in the 1880s, bent on prolonging his lifespan by any means. When a newspaper story on the old murders appears to ignite a new series of horrifyingly similar killings, panic overtakes New York City. Now, FBI agent Pendergast, journalist Bill Smithback, and archaeologist Nora Kelly join forces to protect themselves from a vicious killer...before they become the next victims.

Write-Up Containing Books The Cabinet of Curiosities (Pendergast #3)

After a horrible discovery of a XIX century churnel house made by construction workers, people start dying. The manner of these recent deaths is the same as the old murders, so the press gave the killer a name - The Surgeon. Considering how weird all this is, it is no wonder Pendergast gets involved. There is a lot of him in this book.I have a feeling this book tried to cram as much as incompetent and corrupt people as it it possible. It certainly wins the prize so far. The first two had their



One of the most creepiest books that i might have happened to have read in a long time.I am a little scared still ©.©

For example, 1) I never understood what Nora found attractive in Smithback, he seemed like a fop and a simp. Maybe she wants to get a divorce in a later book in the series. 2) I never saw why Pendergast chose Nora. 3) Very dumb epiphanies - the final room to room walkthrough with the insects, then the lizards, then the clothing, then finally the armor - somehow help the

12/03/2019 - Finished - Review to come 3.5 Stars - I liked it 😎Recommended by Adrienne - thank you!Audiobook - 17:04 hours - Narrator: Jonathan Marosz. This novel deserved more than an "I liked it" 3Stars but was not quite up to the standard of an "I really liked it" 4Stars.Quite a long but interesting plot/storyline that was well-written and held my interest for most of the 17 hours of very good narration by Jonathan Marocz. Some significant suspension of belief was required which is not
