Review: Robicheaux

Robicheaux by James Lee Burke
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

First off I’d like to thank Netgalley, the author and of course the publisher, for allowing me to read this book in exchange for my honest review.

If you haven’t read any of James Lee Burke’s books, I would suggest you start with book one as this one is the 21st book in his series. His characters are well develop, complex, you love them, you love to hate them, and at times you’re not really sure if they are the bad guys or actually the good guys. The writing is face paced, flows nicely, almost poetic.

Dave Robicheaux, the main character is in his books is mourning the loss of his wife, Molly. Like everyone else who has lost a loved one, Robicheaux goes thru the seven stages, some of the stages brings out his nightmares from Vietnam, alcoholism, and other host of problems for him. When the person responsible for the death of his wife, is killed, Dave thinks he may have been the one to do. While every ones tries to figure out whom exactly is responsible.
