In the sultry depths of Louisiana, Dave Robicheaux, a tenacious Cajun detective, finds himself entwined in the dark legacy of the Sonnier family from New Iberia. The local shadows hide secrets that are as thick as the bayou fog, whispering of past sins and present dangers. As he delves deeper into the family’s troubling history, he unravels a web of deceit that threatens to engulf him.

Robicheaux's journey is steeped in the rich cultural tapestry of the region, where ghosts of the past haunt the living, and the line between right and wrong becomes perilously thin.
