Angel of Vengeance

A desperate bargain is broken...

Constance Greene confronts Manhattan’s most dangerous serial killer, Enoch Leng, bartering for her sister’s life — but she is betrayed and turned away empty-handed, incandescent with rage.

A clever trap is set...

Unknown to Leng, Pendergast’s brother, Diogenes, appears unexpectedly, offering to help — for mysterious reasons of his own. Disguised as a cleric, Diogenes establishes himself in New York’s notorious Five Points slum, manipulating events like a chess master, watching Leng’s every move... and awaiting his own chance to strike.

A vengeful angel will not be deterred...

Meanwhile, Pendergast joins focuses with the unstable Constance in her seemingly doomed guest: to rescue her siblings from a tragic fate and take savage retribution on Leng. But Leng is one step ahead and has a surprise for them all...
