Two graves

For twelve years, he believed she died in an accident. Then, he was told she'd been murdered. Now, FBI Special Agent Aloysius Pendergast discovers that his beloved wife Helen is alive. But their reunion is cut short when Helen is brazenly abducted before his eyes. And Pendergast is forced to embark on a furious cross-country chase to rescue her. But all this turns out to be mere prologue to a far larger plot: one that unleashes a chillingly-almost supernaturally-adept serial killer on New York City. And Helen has one more surprise in store for Pendergast: a piece of their shared past that makes him the one man most suited to hunting down the killer. His pursuit of the murderer will take Pendergast deep into the trackless forests of South America, to a hidden place where the evil that has blighted both his and Helen's lives lies in wait . . . a place where he will learn all too well the truth of the ancient proverb: Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.

  • "After his wife, Helen, is brazenly abducted before his eyes, Special Agent Pendergast furiously pursues the kidnappers, chasing them across the country and into Mexico. But then, things go terribly, tragically wrong; the kidnappers escape; and a shattered Pendergast retreats to his New York apartment and shuts out the world. But when a string of bizarre murders erupts across several Manhattan hotels - perpetrated by a boy who seems to have an almost psychic ability to elude capture - NYPD Lieutenant D'Agosta asks his friend Pendergast for help. Reluctant at first, Pendergast soon discovers that the killings are a message from his wife's kidnappers. But why a message? And what does it mean? When the kidnappers strike again at those closest to Pendergast, the FBI agent, filled anew with vengeful fury, sets out to track down and destroy those responsible. His journey takes him deep into the trackless forests of South America, where he ultimately finds himself face to face with an old evil that - rather than having been eradicated - is stirring anew...and with potentially world-altering consequences."@en

  • "Después de presenciar el rapto de su mujer en Central Park, el agente especial del FBI Aloysius Pendergast persigue desesperadamente a los secuestradores por el país hasta llegar a México. Sin embargo, todo sale trágicamente mal: los malhechores logran escapar, y Pendergast, destrozado, regresa a su apartamento en Nueva York para aislarse del mundo. Mientras tanto, en los hoteles de Manhattan se está cometiendo una serie de extraños asesinatos. En cada caso, las cámaras de seguridad captan imágenes claras de un joven pelirrojo, atlético, elegante y bien parecido que se mueve sin prisas por los pasillos de los distintos hoteles. Deja sus huellas, pelos y fibras en el escenario del crimen, pero siempre elude a la policía. Cuando el teniente Vincent D'Agosta acude a Pendergast, el agente no demuestra ningún interés por los hechos hasta que se fija en el modus operandi del asesino: escribe un mensaje en cada cadáver, y estos mensajes se dirigen solamente a él."
