Book summaryRobicheaux confronts a neo-Nazi psychopath who is searching for a sunken Nazi submarine off the Gulf Coast.Media Reviews"...James Lee Burke [is] at the top of his form--and that is high praise indieed. Here's a dandy read." -- Tony Hillerman "Not since Raymond Chandler has anyone so thoroughly reinvented the crime and mystery genre as James Lee Burke. Dixie City Jam is high in Burke's own tradition of excellence, full of the depth and resonance, the delineation of character and atmosphere that we expect from fiction of the highest order." -- Jim Harrison "Dave Robicheaux and Mr. Burke are a pair of American originals." -- Larry Brown "Reading James Lee Burke is like riding a runaway locomotive--a big rush, until you crash and burn....The preposterous plot implodes from...wretched excess, but in brief scene-by-scene doses, Mr. Burke's manic style has a life of its own. The sheer energy of his language has an uplifting effect on the characters, inspiring them to new heights of self-expression and new depths of brutality." -- Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review Publisher NotesThe latest Dave Robicheaux thriller offers a look at hate crimes as Dave confronts a neo-Nazi, becomes involved in a Mafia war, and deals with a Nazi submarine buried off the Louisiana coast.
