Is there any better writer in the crime field. A deeply flawed hero with an equally flawed sidekick. James Lee Burke just keeps getting better. The best Dave Robicheaux novel yet. He didn't go overboard with his characters and the writing was insightful and colorful. Well written, an easy read, and a good story. 0.227 seconds to build listing no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0316117218, Hardcover)A CAJUN COP INFILTRATES THE MOB... BUT IS HE TOO CLOSE? Clutching the shards of his shattered life, Cajun detective Dave Robicheaux has rejoined the New Iberia police force. While transporting two death-row prisoners, Dave is wounded and his partner killed -- reopening the doors to a past he would have rather kept closed. Now he's trailing a killer into the heart of the Big Easy's underworld. Increasingly possessed by his undercover role, Robicheaux surprisingly forms an intimate bond with a Mafia don. Embroiled in a world of drug dealers, prostitutes and double-crosses, Robicheaux must still confront his most dangerous enemy -- himself. Rich with fascinating characters and dramatic plot twists, the audio debut of James Lee Burke and his Cajun detective Dave Robicheaux recalls the best of Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe -- tough, complex and thoroughly entertaining.
