The Book of the Dead

Author: Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child
Bugs: 5
Review by: Michelle

A few years ago, the Friends book club read a book called Cabinet of Curiosities. It was a great book about murders taking place in and around museums. Anyway, I picked up this book and started reading it and realized these were the same characters. It turns out that the authors have written several books with these characters and that this (Book of the Dead) is the third in a trilogy and Cabinet was the first. All the books are stand alone, but I love when you run into the same characters and see what happened to them. There is a page at the back of Book of the Dead that talks about what order you could read these books. These are quick paced, have lots of action, made of short chapters, and have interesting characters. I highly recommend them if you like action/murder stories.
