At the old family manse in Louisiana, Special Agent Pendergast is putting to rest long-ignored possessions reminiscent of his wife Helen's tragic death, only to make a stunning - and dreadful - discovery. Helen had been mauled by an unusually large and vicious lion while they were big game hunting in Africa. But now, Pendergast learns that her rifle-her only protection from the beast-had been deliberately loaded with blanks. Who could have wanted Helen dead...and why?

Nora Kelly, a young curator at the Santa Fe Institute of Archaeology, is approached by historian Clive Benton with a once-in-a-lifetime proposal: to lead a team in search of the so-called "Lost Camp" of the tragic Donner Party. Benton tells Kelly he has stumbled upon an amazing find: the long-sought diary of one of the victims, which has an enigmatic description of the Lost Camp. Nora agrees to lead an expedition to locate and excavate it-to reveal its long-buried secrets. Once in the mountains, they learn that discovering the camp is only the first step in a mounting journey of fear.

Magnificent, eerie, utterly compelling, these stories comprise one of King's finest gifts to his constant fan. "I made them especially for you," says King.

Publisher's Summary
William Smithback, a New York Times reporter, and his wife, Nora Kelly, a Museum of Natural History archeologist, are brutally attacked in their apartment on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Eyewitnesses claim and the security camera confirms the killer seen leaving the building was their strange, sinister neighbor - a man who, by all reports, was already dead.
Captain Hayward leads the official homicide investigation, while Pendergast, D'Agosta, and Nora undertake a private quest for the truth. Their serpentine journey takes them into a part of Manhattan they never imagined could exist: a secretive and deadly hotbed of Obeah, the West Indian Zombii cult of sorcery and magic. And it is here they find their true peril is just beginning.

Don't give away major plot elements in your reviews!
It is very easy to write a review without ruining the book for others by giving away the major events.

love this series!
Yes, there is animal sacrifice graphically depicted in this novel, however there are still cultures today that perform these acts. It is better to be aware that these actions still exist rather than bury your head in the sand and pretend it doesnt happen. The sacrifices depicted are not gratuitous for the novel, they lend credence to the story being told.

Zombies in Manhattan
What made the experience of listening to Cemetery Dance the most enjoyable?
Both the story and the fine narration were excellent. One was glued to one's seat waiting and wondering what the next chapter would bring.
What did you like best about this story?
The story had you believing zombies were real.
Which scene was your favorite?
Any of the scenes with the zombies. I loved the action, sounds and fear.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I was so sad for the lost of a main character.

Still a fan...but they struggled with this one.
I pick up anything from Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. I'm a fan, have read all their books, and am waiting for their next novel.
That said, I couldn't help but feel Messrs. Preston and Child were struggling to pull all the loose strings together on this one toward the end. I guess it still worked. But, I couldn't say it's "up there" with their other works.
Would I still have purchased it, knowing what I know? Yeah. But, then again, I'm a fan.

Pendergast in Manhattan with Zombies
Could it be faster paced? Possibly. Could it be less gorey? Probably. Could it be more "up beat"? Perhaps. But then, it wouldn't be Pendergast. Add Rene Auberjonois and his New Orleans Southern aristocrat accent and prepare yourself for listening at it's best.
Haven't met Special Agent Pendergast? This is as good a place to start as any. You'll be glad you did.

Disappointing
I am a huge fan of the Pendergast series. However, this novel and the one prior to it have not lived up to the quality of the other books in this series. I would give this one higher marks than "The Wheel of Darkness", but not much higher. Zombies? Really? It seems that Preston and Child have run out of ideas. The book did get somewhat better in the latter third of the novel, but not very good overall. The narration, however, was top-notch.

Appalling sound quality
I am enjoying this title but have reached a point where the sound quality is just appalling. This has happened at least once before. The narration makes scratchy noises then both repeats parts and then misses out other parts - each time accompanied by the scratchy noises.
It sounds exactly like a damaged vinyl record. I'm streaming it via Alexa, so I have no idea how this could be the case!

To Rene; that's the best Zombie sound bite ever!
Where does Cemetery Dance rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Not bad at all. I really enjoyed the Pendergast series so far as they are easy going and fun. and this one is no exception.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Cemetery Dance?
It's a bit of twister and is set back in New York with some of the series most memorable characters. Another good yarn so no spoilers here just get involved.
What about Rene Auberjonois’s performance did you like?
The impressions from reader Rene on the monster were brilliant. Well done.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The ending. Again it would spoil it if I told you.
