Burning Angel

by James Lee Burke


Review this book!

In New Orleans, Detective Dave Robicheaux takes up the case of the Fontenot family, an old family in danger of losing their ancestral land. Local mobsters have something to say about Robicheaux's interference with the Fontenot's, and some how this all leads back to Sonny Boy Marsallus, a gambler who decided to head for Central America after he ran up against the powerful Giacana family one too many times.

Publisher Notes

Defending an African American farm family from local mobsters who want their land, Cajun detective Dave Robicheaux travels from his native New Orleans to Central America in pursuit of a notorious gambler and hit man.

Media Reviews

"Burke's lush, humid prose and the controlled otherworldly aspects of this plot deftly capture the inhumanity of the bad guys and the more common frailties of ordinary folk."
