About this book
IN THE ELECTRIC MIST WITH CONFEDERATE DEAD - When a movie crew arrives in New Iberia to shoot a Civil War epic Robicheaux finds that its not just the bayous living inhabitants that are being disturbed. As he hunts a sadistic killer targeting young prostitutes evidence of an earlier murder is brought to light. The skeletal remains are the last echo of a crime Robicheaux himself witnessed as a college freshman almost forty years ago. "An hypnotic thriller everything that a good mystery is supposed to be" Washington Post CADILLAC JUKEBOX - The call from ex-Klansman Aaron Crown couldnt have been more unexpected. Sentenced to 40 years for the decades-old shooting of a civil rights activist Crown should have been out of Louisiana for good. Election candidate Buford LaRose wants Robicheaux to ignore Aarons calls promising him a lucrative job when Buford makes governor. Worse still Bufords wife Karyn seems unhealthily keen to get close to Robicheaux just like old times The LaRoses each for their own reasons want Crowns case buried. "The best of American writing never mind just American crime writing" The Times SUNSET LIMITED - Jack Flynn died on a Klan cross years ago but Robicheaux has never forgotten it. Nor have Flynns two children. When they get mixed up with the case of hustler Cool Breeze Broussard Robicheaux wonders why?
