In this colonial era thriller from a New York Times–bestselling author, a man is lured into danger by a sworn enemy with a deadly agenda.
"A colorful, action-packed tale filled with sinister doings and plenty of good old-fashioned heroics . . . An entertaining ride." — Criminal Element
In the winter of 1703, Matthew Corbett's Manhattan neighborhood is shaken by explosions—and Matthew discovers his old nemesis, Professor Fell, will do anything he can to capture Matthew's attention and obtain his services as a professional problem solver. As a result, Matthew travels from New York to Pendulum Island in the distant Bermudas, taking on various opponents in his quest to come face-to-face with the murderous and manipulative criminal mastermind . . .
Filled with twists, turns, and an almost tangible sense of place, and featuring "a gang of villains that would make even Batman run for cover," The Providence Rider is historical thriller writing at its finest, from World Fantasy and Bram Stoker award–winning author Robert McCammon ( Criminal Element).
