  • "In downtown Manhattan, a gruesome discovery has been made-- an underground charnal 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. A newspaper story on the old murders ignites a new series of horrifyingly similar killings and FBI agent Pendergast, journalist Bill Smithback, and archaeologist Nora Kelly join forces to protect themselves-- before they become the next victims."@en

  • "A new building site in Manhattan uncovers thirty-six bodies buried since the late 1800s. The developer and the mayor are trying to overrule any attempts to delay construction on the old crime scene. But FBI agent Aloysius Pendergast notices something important: all the victims were killed by removing their spines. This exactly matches the M.O. of a serial killer the FBI are currently pursuing. What is the connection between the two cases, 130 years apart?"@en
