This is one of those stories that is so interesting that I finished it in a few hours. I could not set it aside because the characters were so interesting (and different). I'm obsessed with Gene Poschman's noir mysteries. These stories remind me of the wonderful black-and-white movies of old.
The majority of the book's action unfolds in the vibrant backdrop of New Orleans. Jonas Watcher's search for the supposedly deceased Martin Stanton takes him through the French Quarter and the Bayou, a testament to the author's meticulous research. Along the way, Jonas reconnects with an old flame and brings friends from San Francisco. They all get involved with the New Orleans underworld. Fascinating reading!
