From the bestselling author of Dixie City Jam and Burning Angels comes another brilliant Dave Robicheux mystery. At the center of Cadillac Jukebox is Aaron Crown, a former deer poacher convicgted of shooting an NAACP leader. Now, 28 years later, Crown insists he didn't do the deed and wants Dave Robicheux of the New Iberia Sherrif's Office to help him prove it.
When former Klansman and piney-woods outcast Aaron Crown is finally imprisoned for a decades-old murder, it is to Detective Dave Robicheaux that he proclaims his innocence loudest. Crown seems to be a lightning rod for every kind of trouble that the state of Louisiana can unearth. A documentary film writer seeking to prove Crown's innocence is found murdered; a button man for the New Orleans mob accuses Robicheaux of taking a pay-off to ignore Crown. But it is when Buford LaRose-- scion of an old Southern family and author of a book on the Crown case-- is elected governor that Dave Robicheaux's involvement with Aaron Crown deepens to a level he can barely fathom. And it is Buford's social-climbing wife, Karyn, with whom Robicheaux had an affair years before, who proves to be his most poisonous adversary. Filled with thrilling adventure, lightning-paced action, and street smart realism, Cadillac Jukebox is a brilliant addition to Burke's standout Dave Robicheaux series.
