Vincent D'Agosta
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Detective Lieutenant Vincent D'Agosta is a fictional character appearing in the novels of Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. He is an Italian New Yorker and a main character in several different storylines.
D'Agosta's first appearance is in The Relic, as the NYPD detective in charge of the Mbwun museum murders. He and Agent Pendergast are adversaries for much of the investigation, but D'Agosta is eventually able to accept his help and the two work together to solve the mystery. D'Agosta returns in Reliquary, after which he retires to Canada, using the pseudonym of Campbell Dirk to write police procedurals.
D'Agosta comes out of retirement, leaving his cheating wife and college aged son, Vinnie Jr., in Canada, in Brimstone and returns to the force as a sergeant, with the help of Laura Hayward, who he was romantically involved with, working with Agent Pendergast on his investigation and accompanying him to Italy in search of the mysterious violin. In Dance of Death, D'Agosta risks his job to conceal the fugitive Pendergast's whereabouts and helps him defeat his brother.
In the film The Relic, Lieutenant D'Agosta is played by Tom Sizemore.
