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.

"Pendergast--an always-black-clad pale blond polymath, gaunt yet
physically deadly, an FBI agent operating without supervision or
reprimand-lurks at the dark, sharp edge of crime fiction
protagonists."--Kirkus Reviews
"Preston and Child's high-adrenaline 12th thriller featuring
maverick FBI agent Aloysius Pendergast wraps up the trilogy that
began with 2010's Fever Dream and continued with 2011's Cold
Vengeance with a bang...[an] intelligent suspense
novel."--Publishers Weekly
"The names Preston & Child on the cover of a book promise a unique
reading experience unlike any other, and Two Graves delivers the
high thrills one expects from the two masters...authors Douglas
Preston and Lincoln Child have delivered another exceptional
book....Fans will love the conclusion to the trilogy, and newcomers
will seek out the authors' earlier titles."--The Washington
Post
"TWO GRAVES provides readers exactly what they would expect from a
Preston and Child novel --- thrills, high adventure, treacherous
plot twists and well-researched scientific intrigue. The story is
never predictable, and Pendergast is a multi-layered personality
who keeps you guessing throughout."--Bookreporter.com
