The shocking death of a young woman leads Detective Dave Robicheaux into the dark corners of Hollywood  the mafia  and the backwoods of Louisiana in this gripping mystery from modern master (Publishers Weekly) James Lee Burke.  Detective Dave Robicheauxs world isnt filled with too many happy stories  but Desmond Cormiers rags-to-riches tale is certainly one of them. Robicheaux first met Cormier on the streets of New Orleans  when the young  undersized boy had foolish dreams of becoming a Hollywood director.  Twenty-five years later  when Robicheaux knocks on Cormiers door  it isnt to congratulate him on his Golden Globe and Academy Award nominations. Robicheaux has discovered the body of a young woman whos been crucified  wearing only a small chain on her ankle. She disappeared near Cormiers Cyrpemort Point estate  and Robicheaux  along with young deputy  Sean McClain  are looking for answers. Neither Cormier nor his enigmatic actor friend Antoine Butterworth are saying much  but Robicheaux knows better.  As always  Clete Purcel and Daves daughter  Alafair  have Robicheauxs back. Clete witnesses the escape of Texas inmate  Hugo Tillinger  who may hold the key to Robicheauxs case. As they wade further into the investigation  they end up in the crosshairs of the mob  the deranged Chester Wimple  and the dark ghosts Robicheaux has been running from for years. Ultimately  its up to Robicheaux to stop them all  but hell have to summon a light hes never seen or felt to save himself  and those he loves.  Stephen King hailed New York Times bestselling author James Lee Burke as good as he ever was. Now  with The New Iberia Blues  Burke proves that he remains the heavyweight champ  a great American novelist whose work  taken individually or as a whole  is unsurpassed (Michael Connelly).","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44632298881077,"sku":"ByrdShop_1508266689","price":93.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/ByrdShop_1508266689_8c3533b6-e4c4-4dfd-b0c7-eb3bf3a8f2ee.jpg?v=1768238420","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-new-iberia-blues-a-dave-robicheaux-novel","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
