Des Highlands écossais à New York en passant par les bayous de Louisiane, Pendergast doit désormais percer le secret des Esterhazy, traqués par une redoutable organisation.

Les fans du brillant et excentrique agent du FBI Aloysius Pendergast l'ignoraient : il avait été marié avant de perdre sa femme lors d'un safari, en Afrique - sous les crocs d'un lion. Douze ans après le drame, Pendergast découvre qu'il ne s'agissait pas d'un accident, comme il le pensait jusque-là, mais d'un meurtre... Qui pouvait en vouloir à Hélène ? Pourquoi a-t-elle été tuée ? Épaulé par son fidèle Vincent D'Agosta, de la police de New York, Pendergast n'aura de cesse de résoudre l'énigme.

William Smithback, reporter au New York Times, et sa femme Nora Kelly, archéologue au Muséum d'Histoire naturelle, sont sauvagement agressés dans leur appartement de l'Upper West Side de Manhattan. Si Nora en réchappe, Smithback, lui, est tué... Le meurtrier est rapidement identifié par des témoins et des caméras de vidéosurveillance. Il s'agit de leur étrange et sinistre voisin, Fearing... pourtant mort et enterré depuis plusieurs jours déjà ! Un tel mystère ne peut laisser insensible le célèbre inspecteur Pendergast, du FBI.

Depuis que l'inspecteur Aloysius Pendergast et Constance Greene, sa pupille, ont embarqué sur le Britannia en quête d'un coffre volé dans un monastère, de mystérieux phénomènes se multiplient. Qui a bien pu soulever le couvercle du coffre contenant l'énigmatique relique tibétaine, l'Agozyen ? D'où vient la puissance maléfique qui se déchaîne, semant la panique à bord du luxueux paquebot de croisière ? La lutte qui s'engage semble désespérée... À moins que le secret de Constance puisse éviter la catastrophe.

Special Agent Aloysius Pendergast reist zusammen mit seiner Vertrauten Constance Greene nach Exmouth, Massachusetts, um den Diebstahl einer wertvollen Weinsammlung aufzuklären. Im Weinkeller stößt er auf ein Verlies, in dem offenbar ein Mensch lebendig eingemauert wurde. Doch von dem Skelett fehlt - mit Ausnahme eines Fingerknochens - jede Spur. Bald schon erfährt Pendergast von der düsteren Vergangenheit der Stadt.

"Mon cher Vincent, si vous lisez ces lignes, cela signifie que je n'ai pas survécu..." L'inspecteur Pendergast du FBI est donc mort ! Et c'est d'outre-tombe qu'il confie à son ami, le lieutenant D'Agosta, la mission d'empêcher un être démoniaque de commettre le forfait suprême, l'apothéose de sa carrière criminelle. Mais comment D'Agosta pourra-t-il, seul, et en sept jours, déjouer un crime dont il ignore tout ? Et comment lutter contre un adversaire supérieurement intelligent.

Qui, sinon le Malin, a tué Jeremy Grove, le critique d'art dont le corps calciné a été retrouvé dans le grenier de sa demeure... fermé de l'intérieur ? Une chaleur suffocante, une insoutenable odeur de soufre et, surtout, reconnaissable entre toutes, cette empreinte de pied fourchu... Le violon du diable... Lorsqu'un deuxième cas tout aussi mystérieux de combustion spontanée est signalé, le doute n'est plus permis. Sauf pour l'inspecteur Aloysius Pendergast, du FBI, qui ne peut accepter cette hypothèse effrayante.
