DIXIE CITY JAM

The pursuit of a sunken Nazi submarine takes Dave Robicheaux into the realm of neo-Nazis and the under-belly of New Orleans. Patton magnificently portrays the evil of the characters, with every word or description echoing the menace of their lives. He lets the violence roll through the story just as part of every day. His slow drawl, his slang and numerous accents come easily. The abridgment is a fair compromise of descriptive language and action, but is heavy on the violence.
