Title: Great Storytelling
Review: This is one of the better Dave Robicheaux novels. His characters are as compelling as ever and his descriptions of Louisiana almost make you feel as if you have lived there all of your life. This book is equal doses or mystery, procedural drama, and social commentary. The marks against it are for the fact the Bella Lujian seems to be a reqworking of the same old Robicheaux villains and for the over the top connection to Katrina. If Burke needed to make a statement about Katrina he could have done it through a story instead of a sermon.
