About this listen

A routine assignment transporting two death-row prisoners to their executions goes fatally wrong, leaving Dave Robicheaux brutally wounded and his partner dead.

Obsessed with revenge, Dave is persuaded by the DEA to go undercover into the torrid sleepy depths of New Orleans, a volatile world of Mafia drug-running and Cajun voodoo magic. He becomes irrevocably snarled in the nightmarish web surrounding Mafia don Tony Cardo and must put himself against his own worst fears in order to survive.

Fans of Dennis Lehane, Michael Connelly and Don Winslow will love James Lee Burke.

One of the best!

I have listened to most of James Lee Burke’s books. This story is one of my favourites. It flows so well and I could not turn it off.
