James Lee Burke’s most beloved character, Dave Robicheaux, returns in this New York Times bestselling mystery set in the towns and backwoods of Louisiana: an “enthralling yet grim novel that…will captivate, start to finish” (Publishers Weekly).Dave Robicheaux is a haunted man. From the acts he committed in Vietnam, to his battles with alcoholism, to the sudden loss of his beloved wife, Molly, his thoughts drift from one irreconcilable memory to the next. Images of ghosts pepper his reality. Robicheaux’s only beacon remains serving as a detective in New Iberia, Louisiana. It’s in that capacity that Robicheaux crosses paths with powerful mob boss, Tony Nemo. Tony has a Civil War sword he’d like to give to Levon Broussard, a popular local author whose books have been adapted into major Hollywood films. Then there’s Jimmy Nightengale, the young poster boy of New Orleans wealth and glamour. Jimmy’s fond of Levon 217;s work, and even fonder of his beautiful, enigmatic wife, Rowena. Tony thinks Jimmy can be a US Senator someday, and has the resources and clout to make it happen. There’s something off about the relationship among these three men, and after a vicious assault, it’s up to Robicheaux to uncover the truth “in the barn-burner of a climax” (Booklist, starred review). Complicating matters is the sudden death of the New Iberian local responsible for Molly’s death; namely that Robicheaux’s colleague thinks Robicheaux had something to do with it. As Robicheaux works to clear his name and make sense of the murder, a harrowing study of America emerges: this nation’s abiding conflict between a sense of past grandeur and a legacy of shame, its easy seduction by demagogues and wealth, and its predilection for violence and revenge. “It has been almost five years since James Lee Burke’s last Dave Robicheaux novel, and it was absolutely worth the wait” (Associated Press).

Yes, I said literature. James Lee Burke has a command of the English language far beyond that of many writers considered literary. There's beauty in the way he describes Louisiana and, more importantly, its people. He's a good man who has a lot of demons. At his core, however, he's incredibly smart and devoted to both his family and doing right. Robicheaux's struggle with alcohol is epic- and Burke writes about it with great understanding and empathy. He may have lost his wife and his. beloved raccoon Tripod but he's still got his daughter Alafair (just google her) and best of all his old buddy Clete. Clete is a man of excess but he too is devoted to doing the right thing and most of all to Dave. As always, this is a complicated novel full of twists and turns, good guys and bad guys, and it's d eeply rewarding. This time there's a writer, his wife, a populist politician, interesting police officers, the usual mob guys, and an assassin, One special thing- Burke once again commends the US Coast Guard for its good work during Katrina. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. I can't recommend this highly enough. I love James Lee Burke's work. But, not even he can hit a home run every time. While his worst writing is better than 90 percent of all other fiction, he can still produce a dud now and then. Robicheaux, titled for his signature character, is a good read. It just is not up to par with much of his previous work. I usually highlight every other page and passage because Burke's prose is so arresting and beautiful. I think I highlighted four or five passages in this book. It just isn't as rich and poetic as usual. There were also lots of typos in this one -- another anomaly. I think Burke was trying to tie up some things in this book. Dave and Clete's long friendship and partnership for one. It didn't work. I also think he was trying to comment on life in the US after the 2016 election. If so, he never really made his point. The book still gets four stars. Burke's grocery list would get that from me. But, I was a bit disappointed. Robicheaux: A Novel (Dave Robicheaux) PDFRobicheaux: A Novel (Dave Robicheaux) Epub
