Even the bit players in this teeming cast of hookers, cons and wildeyed street preachers rejoice in names like Wilbur "Damfino" Nougat or Coco Navajoa.

" In a quick-paced sequel to The Maya Stone Murders , New Orleans PI and Vietnam vet Micah Dunn is waiting for a client named Julia Morvant at the airport when her plane explodes; traces of a bomb are found in the wreckage. Dunn, feeling guilty that he couldn't aid Morvant in life, forms a Laura -like obsession with her in death. Her roommate says that Morvant was a high-priced call girl and reports that the last thing Morvant said to her was that she would "make Marc Antony look like a piker." Armed with this useless clue, Dunn is trying to piece Morvant's life together when a Vietnam buddy, now working for a shadowy Pentagon outfit, recruits him to help track down a killer-for-hire named Rivas, believed responsible for the bombing as well as a murder attempt on a congressman and his wife.…

N.Y.: Putnam, 1994. 1st ed. fine in dust jacket. Author's first book. New Orleans setting. ..."Tubby Dubonnet is a lawyer who likes fishing, beer and off-track betting. His clients include a cross-dresser referred by the very doctor he's suing for a botched skin-creolizing, and a lakefront bar owner who has held on to a nearly $1 million payoff after a shrimpboat marijuana bust. The bar owner hands over the money locked in a gym bag to Tubby, then is murdered, leaving behind a death scene portrayed with jarring comic understatement. Tubby grapples with the temptation of riches and the threats of claimants, and, as he sorts out the rogues from and among the buttoned-downs, he dispatches the villain and finds a home for the cash in a conclusion that's as cleverly convoluted and amusing as the rest of this tale, the first in the series.
