### Author Biography

The thrillers of Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child "stand head and shoulders above their rivals" (_Publishers Weekly_). Preston and Child's _Relic_ and _The Cabinet of Curiosities_ were chosen by readers in a National Public Radio poll as being among the one hundred greatest thrillers ever written, and _Relic_ was made into a number-one box office hit movie. They are coauthors of the famed Pendergast series and their recent novels include _Fever Dream_, _Cold Vengeance_, _Two Graves_, and _Gideon's Corpse_. In addition to his novels, Preston writes about archaeology for the New Yorker and Smithsonian magazines. Lincoln Child is a former book editor who has published five novels of his own, including the huge bestseller _Deep Storm_.
