โœฆ Synopsis

From Library Journal

Burke's outstanding mystery series featuring Cajun detective Dave Robicheaux (e.g., Dixie City Jam, Audio Reviews, LJ 2/15/95) has catapulted him from a well-reviewed if somewhat obscure author to a writer of best sellers. In this latest, Robicheaux becomes involved with locals in a dispute over land that may or may not be home to Jean Laffite's treasure. Contributing to Robicheaux's already tortured conscience is Sonny Marsallus, a hood with a heart who saves Robicheaux's life and is promptly arrested for his trouble. As in In the Electric Mist with Confederate Dead (Audio Reviews, LJ 5/1/93), Burke incorporates some quasisupernatural elements that add to the tale's brooding atmosphere. Although Burke is an author whose work is best left unabridged?his plots can be confusing enough on their own thanks to large casts of supporting characters?the publisher does a creditable job of keeping the story line intact. Reader Will Patton adds another star to his already superb resume with a fantastic reading. Recommended for most popular collections.?Mark Annichiarico, "Library Journal"
