A review by baylady
Diablo Mesa by Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child
5.0
Once nice thing about Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child's books is that they doesn't dwell endlessly on the events of previous books. Here, Nora Kelley's adventures in previous books is simply mentioned in passing, where it makes sense, such as telling readers new to the series, that archaeologist Nora and FBI agent Corrie Swanson worked together previously.
Nora is, once again, unhappily engulfed in office politicking at the Academy of Natural Sciences, and so is thrown into a search for "something" at a dig in Area 51. The science fictional aspects of the plot avoid the usual little green men, and the action sequences are as realistic as they are fast-paced. The archaeology is (as always) spot-on.
This is a great read, but since it's a large book, and a page-turner, you'll need to carve out a good bit of time to devote to the reading... but it's well worth the time.
I won a copy of this book! #GoodreadsGiveaway. (I would have read it regardless!)
