This was a really entertaining read. Gruesome, but interesting. ( )

I really liked this one. I found the whole premise imaginative and captivating; it was nice to get a P&C with a 19th century flair, and it was so much fun to get to see more of Pendergast being awesome. A wonderfully creepy thriller. ( )
