1 author picked Dixie City Jam as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
James Lee Burke’s Robichaud novels are terrific. In this book, Detective Dave Robichaud is caught up in a deadly struggle over a Nazi U-boat buried off the Louisiana coast.
Like any great protagonist, Robichaud is a guy with troubles that pre-date and persist long after any case is closed. This time it’s a sunken Nazi ship that has been the stuff of nightmares since he was a child.

From David's list on another time and place with interesting company.
