Verses for the dead
Preston, Douglas J.
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.
