In James Lee Burke's 15th mystery featuring hard-boiled everyman cop Dave Robicheaux, past and present merge in a wash of archetypal figures and gruff heroism. Robicheaux, haunted by his alcoholic past, has never forgiven himself for failing to prevent the shooting death of a Vietnam veteran 20 years ago. Now, it appears as if he may have the chance for redemption.

Publisher's Note
Precariously content in his strict AA lifestyle at the side of a woman he loves, New Orleans detective Dave Robicheaux finds his peace shattered by the appearance of a woman who is passing stolen money and the suicide of another woman who may be the daughter of Dave's long-time friend. Simultaneous.

Industry Reviews
"With mythically named characters galore, [s]ubplots that come together more coherently than in previous Robicheaux novels, and evocative descriptions of bayou life, Burke's beautifully constructed American setting manages to remain as foreign as the farthest tropical villages." --rating: B+
(07/21/2006)

"Burke takes the theme of generational guilt to Homeric levels of tragedy, writing with a kind of drunken rapture about those sins that cycle through the regional heritage, poisoning generations yet unborn."
