Publisher's Summary

Art critic Jeremy Grove is found dead, his face frozen in a mask of terror. His body temperature is grotesquely high; he is discovered in a room barricaded from the inside; the smell of brimstone is everywhere... and the unmistakable imprint of a claw is burned into the wall. As more bodies are discovered - their only connection the bizarre but identical manner of death - the world begins to wonder if the Devil has, in fact, come to collect his due.

Teaming with Police Officer Vincent D'Agosta (The Relic), Agent Pendergast is determined to solve this case that appears to defy everything except supernatural logic.

Awesome story!

As always, I enjoy this writing duo very much. I've never been disappointed by them. But I have to say that the narrator is freaking awesome. The voices he does for each character, you know who's talking without being told and that's amazing. The story had a lot of twists and turns and the ending has me a bit shocked so now I have to get the next book in the series because it's too good to let go.

Great pace, mystery, story

Quite enjoyed this book as it was a bit of a departure from others in the series focusing more on mythology and symbolism. The stakes are high and the outcome satisfying (except for that one cliffhanger!)

Only thing that seemed a bit off was the anticlimactic conclusion of a side story in New York City.. Just didn't seem to really have a purpose or keep me interested.

Performance was really good, even switching between male and female characters!
