David Robicheaux returns to New Orleans to investigate a crime that is both personal - the brutal beating of his friend, a controversial Catholic priest - and professionally risky: the Big Easy is no longer his beat. Never far from his reach are the violence and corruption of a culture gone bad: in New Iberia, his hometown, a tragic car crash that kills three teenage girls sparks a spiral of revenge and murder that pulls him in with irrevocable force. Featuring characters with the distictive sting of the bayou, and his well-seasoned Louisiana cop Dave Robichraux, Jame Lee Burke crafts his most enthralling work of noir suspense.
