Story
Appearing out of nowhere to horrify the quiet resort town of Sanibel Island, Florida, dozens of identical, ordinary-looking shoes float in on the tide and are washed up on the tropical beach - each one with a crudely severed human foot inside. Called away from vacation elsewhere in the state, Agent Pendergast reluctantly agrees to visit the crime scene - and, despite himself, is quickly drawn in by the incomprehensible puzzle. An early pathology report only adds to the mystery.

Story
A construction project beneath the National Mall reveals a dark secret dating back to the Civil War, something buried by a cabal of scientists, led by Alexander Graham Bell, who helped found the Smithsonian Institution. It is a cache of bones, preserved in amber, protecting a wonder like no other, the very secret of life after death. But such a prize is guarded by a horror out of the ancient past, a horror that still lives in the marrow of those bones - and is now free again.

Story
Lucas Davenport had crossed paths with her before. A rich psychopath, Taryn Grant had run successfully for the US Senate, where Lucas had predicted she'd fit right in. He was also convinced that she'd been responsible for three murders, though he'd never been able to prove it. Once a psychopath had gotten that kind of rush, though, he or she often needed another fix, so he figured he might be seeing her again. He was right.

Story
The four dead guards didn’t concern Mitch Rapp as much as the absence of the man they’d been paid to protect. Joe Rickman wasn’t just another foot soldier. For the last eight years Rickman had ran the CIA’s clandestine operations in Afghanistan. It was a murky job that involved working with virtually every disreputable figure in the Islamic Republic. More than a quarter billion dollars in cash had passed through Rickman’s hands during his tenure as the master of black ops and no one with a shred of sense wanted to know the details of how that money had been spent.

Publisher's Summary
Preston & Child return with their number-one best-selling series, confronting FBI Special Agent Pendergast with the one challenge he never expected: a partner.
After an overhaul of leadership at the FBI's New York field office, A. X. L. Pendergast is abruptly forced to accept an unthinkable condition of continued employment: the famously rogue agent must now work with a partner.
Pendergast and his new teammate, junior agent Coldmoon, are assigned to Miami Beach, where a rash of killings by a bloodthirsty psychopath are distinguished by a confounding M.O.: cutting out the hearts of his victims and leaving them - along with cryptic handwritten letters - at local gravestones, unconnected save in one bizarre way: all belonged to women who committed suicide.
But the seeming lack of connection between the old suicides and the new murders is soon the least of Pendergast's worries. Because as he digs deeper, he realizes the brutal new crimes may be just the tip of the iceberg: a conspiracy of death that reaches back decades.

Completely Absorbing Pendergast novel...
Let me start by saying if someone is going to leave a poor rating on a newly released book I would appreciate if a review was also posted. I don't think this is fair to the author or potential listeners. Luckily for Lincoln and Child, I believe they have enough dedicated readers who will ignore the low ratings without an explanation why.
Pendergast's newest book had me cringing at the beginning. Woman goes to the cemetery to visit with her deceased husband. She brought her Pekingese dog with her and ends up having a tug-of-war with him and the human heart the dog has found on top of another grave.
All of the Pendergast novels are very detailed and this one is no exception. This story is so intricately woven with details so specific you can close your eyes and see the different scenes unfold.
Of all the Pendergast novels, this one is as close to believable as I've seen. But again with the Lincoln/Child novels I don't look for believability, I look for a thrilling mystery with an outrageously shocking motive (it is!) that only Pendergast, with all his oddities can solve.
In this newest book Pendergast is teamed up with a partner (Coldmoon) who is part American Indian. Initially he is told by the new SAC to basically spy on Pendergast because of his strange ways. Things don't quite work out the way either expected.
I would really like to continue but I don't want to spoil this book for anyone else.
Renee Auberjonois as always does a wonderful job narrating.

Thoroughly engrossing
An excellent addition to the series. Pendergast fans will not be disappointed. At least one reference to past events in SA Pendergast's new partner opens the door for a stands alone novel about his early career as well.
As usual, Rene Auberjonois' narration is superb. I would love to see Hachette Audio or Audible redo the first two books if the series with him as the narrator.

Pendergast doing what he does best
I found this a solid, highly enjoyable story that kept me engrossed from beginning to end. As much as the drama of Pendergast's personal life is always interesting, it can be like a very rich delicacy - best savored in small doses between other flavors. For me, this book was a perfect, pallet cleansing break-away that allowed Pendergast to do what he does best while introducing some other interesting characters and dealing with a typically interesting and plot-twisty Preston and Child mystery. The authors did a great job and I enjoyed every minute.
The wealth of characters who make up this fictional universe and the authors' ability to make you care about them even when they only pop up occasionally has always been a strong point for this series, and Agent Coldmoon was a great addition in this tradition. It was entertaining watching him and Pendergast interact, and he was an interesting character in his own right as well. I dare to hope that this will not be the last we have seen of him and that like many other recurring characters in the series we may see him again in future stories.
There was interestingly less of a true "monster" supernatural/weird science focus in this book than many of the previous, but I think that worked well for this story. It's good to mix things up and have variety, and I like the way the situations in this book were handled. Not every single little question was answered, but all the important ones were and it felt realistic somehow.
Mr. Auberjonois also deserves all the credit in the world for his wonderful narration. I don't know if I've mentioned it before, but it should definitely be mentioned since he does an absolutely magnificent job in this book, and in all previous ones. I really believe that no one else could bring this world to life quite the way he does and I very much enjoy and appreciate it.
Overall I thoroughly enjoyed this book and my only complaint would be that I wanted it to go on longer! I always mean to make these books last, and then I always binge them far too quickly and am sad when they are over. Already looking forward to the next one!

This is the first time that I haven’t given five stars to this series. For some reason this book just did not click with me. Usually I can’t put the “book”down can’t wait to finish it not so with this one. Yes I will continue to read the series just hope this was a one time thing.

Not the best Pendergast
If the Pendergast novel The Cabinet of Curiosities was a 10 (and in my opinion it was), then by comparison Verses for the Dead is a 4.5. Not the best by far, but since it was Pendergast it was still entertaining.

I miss the multiple, complex plot lines and natural science points of interest
I’ll read any Pendergast novel with great enjoyment, and this one had a nice twist few will see coming. I also liked the new character, Agent Coldmoon. Compared to the early works of the series, however, it lacks the complexity of the multiple, grippingly suspenseful, richly interwoven plots. I also miss the interesting tidbits of natural science that enhanced the appeal of the earlier works. Except for some inconsequential mention of carnivorous plants, at the beginning, this feature was largely absent.

Lt. Joe Gunther of the Brattleboro, Vermont, police force has a serious problem: in a community where a decade could pass without a single murder, the body count is suddenly mounting. Innocent citizens are being killed - and others set up - seemingly orchestrated by a mysterious ski-masked man. Signs suggest that a three-year-old murder trial might lie at the heart of things, but it's a case that many in the department would prefer remained closed. A man of quiet integrity, Lt. Gunther knows that he must pursue the case to its conclusion, wherever it leads.

On the evening of November 24, 1971, D. B. Cooper hijacked Flight 305—Portland to Seattle—with a fake bomb, collected a ransom of $200,000, and then parachuted from the rear of the plane, disappearing into the night...and into history. Fifty years later, Agent Pendergast takes on a bizarre and gruesome case: in the ghost-haunted city of Savannah, Georgia, bodies are found with no blood left in their veins—sowing panic and reviving whispered tales of the infamous Savannah Vampire.

Maggie's latest case is an unidentified female in her early teens, discovered in a local cemetery.
