mpetruce 's review for:

Verses for the Dead by Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child
2.0

Staying with the self-contained procedural here. We even get new characters! Although he may never show up again. This one was OK. I'm used to these stories coming together quickly, but this one almost came together too quickly. And if there were any clues to whodunnit, I certainly didn't see them. And a couple instances where you thought "Oh no!", seemed to peter off into nothing. But still, I am a devoted reader of the series and this one at least wasn't flat out weird like the Diogenes or Helen books in the series.
