There are many twists and turns in this book and I have to say I didn't see the outcome. This series just gets better and better. While this series isn't as racy as his Scotty series seems to be, its just as entertaining. I appreciate that Chanse's character isn't written over the top. His life is just as complex and mundane as the rest of us. His assistant and occasional stripper Abby is a fabulous addition to this series. I love her spunk and drive.

The story takes place in New Orleans, post Katrina and the atmosphere and the descriptions of the city are masterfully done, even little details about the different Mardi Gras krewes make the atmosphere realistic. Makes me long to go back and get a po'boy.

I liked this one a lot, nice tight mystery - disappearances, family issues, murder, MMA, and NO rain!!
What I do like about this series is the very strong sense of place - I spend a lot of time looking up places mentioned, to get a great feel for NOLA.
Chanse is quite low key in this one I felt - much more the catalyst than the main but I liked that.
We don’t get much on him personally this time - more his chats with Abby.
