Omtale fra forlaget
'Hurricane Katrina ripped the soul out of Burke's beloved New Orleans and inspired him to write what has to be his most gripping thriller to date.' MirrorNew Orleans is awash with corpses after Hurricane Katrina unleashes its awesome power. In a city patrolled only by looters, all law and order gone, the survivors wait in trees or on rooftops for help that never comes. In a landscape transformed into a violent wasteland, Dave Robicheaux must investigate the shooting of two looters and find out why some very dangerous people are hunting a third. Is it because they unwittingly ransacked the house of a notorious mob boss? Or did a chance encounter with the father of a raped girl seal their fate? As Robicheaux starts to uncover a ruthless tale of greed, torture and murder, his own family comes under threat from a sinister psychopath, and the devastated city provides the perfect stage for a final confrontation between good and evil.'A beautifully written howl of rage and pain over the disaster - social, political, human - that was Hurricane Katrina.'

Gjennom trærne var skyene lilla og rosasprengte mot vest. Nederst i skråningen sto en blå hegre blant noen liljeblader og plukket insekter fra vingen. Fuglens slanke linjer var som et haikudikt inni alle fjærene.
