In the waning days of summer months 2005, a storm with greater impact compared to the bomb that struck Hiroshima peels the face off southern Louisiana. This is actually the gruesome truth Iberia Parish Sheriff’s Detective Dave Robicheaux discovers as he is deployed to New Orleans. As The Tin Roof Blowdown begins, Hurricane Katrina offers left the industrial district and residential neighborhoods awash with looters and predators of every stripe. The power grid of the town has been ruined; New Orleans decreased to the level of a middle ages society. There is no laws, no order, no sanctuary for the infirm, the helpless, as well as the innocent. Body float in the streets and lay impaled around the branches of flooded trees and shrubs. In the midst of an apocalyptical headache, Robicheaux must discover two serial rapists, a morphine-addicted priest, and a vigilante who could be even more dangerous than the thieves looting the city.
