Critics Review
A gripping thriller from a master of the form - I paper
One of crime fiction’s great creations. He’s like no other cop. Haunted by the Vietnam War, prone to violence, heavy drinking and fits of depression, he emerges as a flawed man of honour, an enemy of injustice and of racial hatred. And Burke is like no other crime writer, his prose is lyrical, swirling and nostalgic. - THE TIMESAfter 22 books, Burke’s Dave Robicheaux novels have established their own unforgettable world … Utterly unique - MAIL ON SUNDAYThe prose is, as always, dreamily fabulous as Robicheaux, one of American crime fiction’s great knight errants, embarks on one last tilt against evil’s windmills. - The Irish TimesAbout The Author
