Reviews"The last third of the novel is not to be missed and is impossible to put down. Everything from Cold War espionage to Soviet agents at Roswell and, of course, our top-secret group that is behind all of this will cause enough suspense and unpredictable thrills that you will not be able to see the next move coming before Preston & Child cast a literary checkmate. Diablo Mesa is just what thriller junkies require, and this always reliable author duo delivers at every turn."-- Bookreporter, "Preston & Child are back with a thrilling, excellent third novel... Nobody writes like these two and this book keeps you the edge as you read along with the adventure." -- Red Carpet Crash, " Diablo Mesa is thriller-adventure writing of the absolute highest order that takes Preston and Child back to their high-concept roots in books like Mount Dragon and Thunderheart . It reads like a hybrid of the best from Wilbur Smith and Alistair MacLean, making for flat-out great reading entertainment."-- BookTrib, "Excellent... The taut suspense and tight plotting that marked the authors' earliest Pendergast novels are very much in evidence. Fans of kick-ass female leads will be delighted."-- Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

SynopsisFrom New York Times bestsellers Preston and Child, archaeologist Nora Kelly and FBI Agent Corrie Swanson are tasked with the mysterious deaths of two people found at a site where a UFO allegedly crashed decades before. Lucas Tappan, a wealthy and eccentric billionaire and founder of Icarus Space Systems, approaches the Santa Fe Archaeological Institute with an outlandish proposal--to finance a careful, scientific excavation of the Roswell Incident site, where a UFO is alleged to have crashed in 1947. A skeptical Nora Kelly, to her great annoyance, is tasked with the job. Nora's excavation immediately uncovers two murder victims buried at the site, faces and hands obliterated with acid to erase their identities. Special Agent Corrie Swanson is assigned to the case. As Nora's excavation proceeds, uncovering things both bizarre and seemingly inexplicable, Corrie's homicide investigation throws open a Pandora's box of espionage and violence, uncovering bloody traces of a powerful force that will stop at nothing to protect its secrets--and that threatens to engulf them all in an unimaginable fate.

  • Diablo Mesa is an intense title that is truly intriguing especially knowing the characters involved.

    Douglas Child and Lincoln Preston are a dynamic duo that build suspense which keeps your attention throughout the book with twist and turns and always end with astonishment and wonder that the end might not be what you assumed would be true and final. So many subtle clues interwoven with facts. The duo of Corrie Swanson and Nora Kelley is always electric but gets the job done.
