A new printing of a 1976 novel by James Lee Burke, starring the early verson of Dave Robicheauz. It is moving, turbulent, and a wonderful read!

This is a novel that was written before he started on his popular series (Robicheaux)and has been reissued. It's a good read and, as always, he conjours up terric, believable characters and magnificent country atmosphere. In this case it's Montana and ex-cons. Great read.

Not one of his best, but picks up speed and wraps up with a good ending.

I read this book in one sitting. If you like Dave Robicheaux you will love Iry Paret. Originally shopped around 18 years ago and rejected 111 times, this book was finally published and you have to ask yourself "What were the people who rejected it thinking and where are they working now?" Now re-released (2006)it has all the grittiness of Robicheaux but in James Lee Burke's other hometown state of Montana. This book is not to be missed if you are a Burke fan.

Not the usual James Lee Burke novel, however it is a good look at the lives of those who have had hardships, and come out of it with a positive.
