Babylon Bayou - Paperback

by Conley Clark (Author)

When disinherited and diabetic New Orleans PI Tag Boudreau is hired by an attractive photographer to find her brother, the case quickly becomes a murder investigation. Cops with a vendetta against Boudreau want him for a double homicide, a Cajun crime chief with a lust for Croation women gladiators wants information, and New Orleans Cosa Nostra tell Boudreau they just want to help--for a price. From the French Quarter to the ocean cliffs of Mexico to the Louisiana cypress swamp, Tag and his partner, Koot Loomis, fight to stay alive as they attempt to unravel the secrets behind a betrayal connected to the murders. When Hurricane Katrina leaves Florida and screams north, Tag and Koot have to act fast. A tip leads them to a secret operation and to the final confrontation--a day ahead of Katrina. The spectacular climax is based on a true occurence, an event so astounding it will likely never happen again--anywhere.
