As he navigates the intricate landscape of the city, he is pulled into a whirlwind of crime, corruption, and deeply buried family secrets. Each street is steeped in history, but for Robicheaux, it's the personal connections that weigh heavily on his heart.
Haunted by ghosts from his former life, he grapples with the legacy of his decisions while facing the darker underbelly of a city teeming with intrigue. As he delves deeper into a case that intertwines the lives of those around him, he discovers that justice often comes with a steep personal price.
