Advantages: A step forward in the Robicheaux series Disadvantages: Not as good as others in the series
visited by other cops suspiciously keen to know what passed between them. As these cops are shadily connected to powerful local businessmen it all points to a classic Robicheaux mystery.

He lives in Washington with his young family and his elderly grandmother and at various times he has been a detective and psychologist for the Washington police force ad well as working for the FBI.
