Media Reviews
"[A] great mystery series can be something akin to a nineteenth century novel--a luxuriant experience that allows readers to live with a character over years. It's tempting to view James Lee Burke's Dave Robicheaux series....as if it were one vast novel with installments still to come, a way to grant the reader's wish that a favorite book never end."
