I have been troubled greatly by the deaths around me, but incorporating the suffering of others into your own life does not change the ways of the world. -James Lee Burke ( ) Heavens Prisoners A twist of fate - relaxing in his boat with his wife when a small plane crashes into the waters - brings both joy and sorrow into Dave Robicheaux's life, testing his resolve, his sobriety and his sense of right and wrong. The stakes are raised in this second novel of the Robicheaux's series and the complex mix of characters, locations and conflict adds up to a very entertaining read. James Lee Burke's flair for the descriptive prose, his handling of violence, his obvious love of the sights and sounds of New Orleans and surrounding areas, and the development of an interesting lead combines to produce a story to be remembered. I am very late on reading the Robicheaux series but I am glad to have many more novels of the calibre of Heaven's Prisoners ahead of me. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

THE NEON RAIN: When Johnny Massina, a convicted murderer bound for the electric chair, warns Dave Robicheaux he's on somebody's hit list, the Cajun detective is rocketed into a situation with chilling consequences. THE NEON RAIN is the first highly acclaimed novel in the Dave Robicheaux series. HEAVEN'S PRISONERS: Dave Robicheaux is trying to put a life of violence and crime behind him, leaving homicide to run a boat-rental business in Louisiana's bayou country. But one day a small two-engine plane suddenly crashes into the sea and Robicheaux dives down to the wreckage to find four bodies and one survivor: a little girl miraculously trapped in a pocket of air. When the authorities insist only three bodies were recovered from the plane, Robicheaux decides to investigate the mystery of the missing man. BLACK CHERRY BLUES: Personal tragedy has left Dave Robicheaux close to the edge. Battling against his old addiction to alcohol, Dave finds his only tranquillity at home with his young ward Alafair. But even this fragile peace is shattered by the arrival of Dixie Lee Pugh who brings with him a brutal trail of murder and violence. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
