Product Description
Robert B. Parker hailed his novel Bait as "brilliant." Now, Kenneth Abel introduces former New Orleans prosecutor Danny Chaisson-and spins a tale of corruption and betrayal that "takes apart crooked Louisiana politics...and makes you care about every last one of the quick and the dead" (Kirkus Reviews).
"A Louisiana saga propelled by dark deeds and the politics of greed...stylishly written...shrewdly plotted." (Los Angeles Times)
"Dark and sometimes bitterly funny." (Chicago Tribune)

Reviews: |
|
Lou B (USA: NV) (2011/08/30): A tale of political misdoing and murder set in New Orleans, not only a thriller, but also a sort of social novel about the struggle of the black underclass plus being an eye-opener illustrating how cheap, illegal guns sold by white dealers can infiltrate a black neighborhood. Many characters, plots and sub-plots.
