false 39030 24 Hidden deep beneath Manhattan lies a warren of tunnels, sewers, and galleries, mostly forgotten by those who walk the streets above. There lies the ultimate secret of the Museum Beat. When two grotesquely deformed skeletons are found deep in the mud off the Manhattan shoreline, museum curator Margo Green is called in to aid the investigation. Margo must once again team up with police lieutenant D'Agosta and FBI agent Pendergast, as well as the brilliant Dr. Frock, to try and solve the puzzle. The trail soon leads deep underground, where they will face the awakening of a slumbering nightmare. 65004 book 1997 Reliquary (Pendergast, #2) total:2289|5:535|4:863|3:727|2:149|1:16| 2289 8618 2775 133 3 0 false false Mon Aug 31 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 29 05:37:02 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 01 04:10:57 -0700 2009 more...]]> 2 0 false false Wed Jul 15 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 12 19:12:54 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 15 13:39:20 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 1 false false Thu Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Thu Nov 15 07:17:16 -0800 2007 Tue Nov 27 13:53:11 -0800 2007 ...more...]]> 3 0 false false Sun Mar 22 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Mar 20 16:53:43 -0700 2009 Sun Mar 22 10:40:47 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Wed Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Sat Feb 16 10:28:59 -0800 2008 Sat Feb 16 10:28:59 -0800 2008 Relic.
