Read this one twice. Doesn't get much better than James Lee Burke. ( )

A little bit of diminishing returns from the fourth Robicheaux book. I just wish Burke would decide to either have him be a cop or not be one. I've kinda lost count how many times he's been on and off the force now.

That being said, he created one of his better "villains" this time.

The series is still providing enough return on investment that I'll keep going for a bit yet. I trust Burke enough as a writer to not give up on him yet. ( )

A Morning for Flamingos. James Lee Burke. (A Dave Robicheaux novel) 1990. I always forget how much I love Dave Robicheaux! Some time ago I decided to start with the first title in the series and read until I came to one I’d read; but this is the 4th one and I am not sure I’ve read 2 and 3. Never mind. Clete is in this one, Dave has stopped drinking, but still has nightmares and he has Alafair, and bait shop. He reconnects with Bootsie. He is a deputy taking 2 men to prison. The bad guy overpowers the other deputy and almost kills Burke. When Robicheaux is approached by the Feds to go undercover to catch some drug lords, Dave thinks it may give him a chance to get even with the man who almost killed him and the usual violent chaos erupts.

Got this book from overdrive to read while waiting for book #2 in the series to arrive from Amazon. Dave and his partner are transporting two prisoners to Angola prison when things go horribly wrong and Dave is shot and injured. After his recovery he goes undercover for the DEA to take down a druglord. What happens during his undercover assignment is the main focus of the book. These books are very well edited and am enjoying reading more about Dave and his life. Highly recommend this book and the series. ( )

After the emotional wringer of Heaven's Prisoners and the extreme stress of Black Cherry Blues, the previous two books in the Dave Robicheaux series, I was prepared for this one to go to some pretty dark places. And to be sure, there is some brutal action here—a shooting, a drowning, both vividly described—but there's also a gentleness and even a peace that I'd never guessed were coming, a generosity in the resolution that I found welcome. That resolution is so atypical of the thriller formula that it may leave some readers dissatisfied where it only left me surprised. Check it out for yourself, and test your tolerance for shades of gray. ( )
