When a nice young woman named Trish Klein blows into Louisiana passing hundred-dollar bills in local casinos, detective Dave Robicheaux senses a storm bearing down on his new life of contentment....Twenty-five years ago, lost in a drunken haze in Florida, Robicheaux was too far gone to save his friend and fellow 'Nam vet Dallas Klein, murdered in cold blood for gambling debts. Now, the arrival of Dallas's daughter opens a door locked long ago, and extracting her motives points Robicheaux to the suicide of a local "good girl" pulled into a vortex of power, sex, and death. It's Robicheaux's most personally painful case -- a roller coaster of passion, surprise, and regret -- and it may be his deadliest.

Pegasus Descending - A Dave Robicheaux novel -
James Lee Burke is a brilliant storyteller who writes multilayered, gripping, thrilling mysteries that are profoundly honest as they capture the flavor of the Louisiana bayou atmosphere. His work is intelligent, thoughtful, satisfying, and beautifully atmospheric. Burke's prose is lyrical, his characters complex, sharply and richly drawn. Burke has won two Edgar Awards and many New York Times bestsellers. I have read all of his books and eagerly look forward to the next one.

"...wish to rise? Begin by descending...plan a tower to reach the clouds? Lay ...the foundation in humility." St. Augustus -
Dave Robicheaux is working on three cases that he comes to believe are connected.
The first is the case of a young co-ed who is found dead of apparent suicide but the facts don't add up.
Then there is a black vagrant whose body is found in a gulley by the road. He is so decomposed, he is given the nickname the Crustation man. Not many people would care for the apparent victim of a hit and run but to Dave, it is a matter of justice.
Besides the third case, Dave is asked to question a young woman who is passing money at a casino that looks like it has the markings of a former hold up. Dave finds that this woman is the daughter of a friend that Dave had seen killed during an armored car robbery.
The third death is that of a college student. There had been a racial incident and the black man involved was known to sell drugs. The ambitious district attorney views this man as the main suspect when the college student is killed. However, Dave thinks that the man is being set up.
James Lee Burke is a master and the reader is glued to the action as Dave attemps to sort these crimes out. All of this is happening as New Orleans is on the verge of Hurricane Katrina and the destruction that storm brought with it.
Dave Robicheaux, with his sense of justice, his faith and his unstable temper is one of the great characters in literature. Together with his loyal but flawed side-kick Clete Purcel, these two characters leave an imprint that is unmatched.
RECOMMENDED -
I have read a few books in this series and am always pleased. For me, they are interesting, paced well, and exciting. It is hard to put them down. While the plot might be a little predictable, I particularly enjoy the writing and the language. The author combines street slang with some really intelligent dialogue in a seamless flow. Dave, the main character, is especially eloquent in his very Southern choice of words as he waxes philosophical. The rough action is well balanced by laments of the treatment of people and the ills of society. Some passages are almost poetical as the book appeals to the intellect as well as more earthy passions.
James Lee Burke's Pegasus Decending -
If you've never had the pleasure of reading James Lee Burke, you don't know what you're missing. He keeps getting better and better. His use of the English Language is wonderful. I keep my electronic dictionary handy! Every character is well drawn. Burke's protagonist, Dave Robicheaux, is a New Orleans (actually New Iberia) policeman I'd love to meet. With each of Burke's Robicheaux stories, you watch and listen as Dave grows, matures, and philosophizes. This particular novel is set during Hurricane Katrina and is beautifully layered with sub-plots (as are all of the Robicheaux novels). Start at the beginning with Neon Rain and have a blast working your way through, in order, to Swan Peak.
