The creator of Louisiana detective Dave Robicheaux and characters based on his own family, James Lee Burke has used the mystery genre to explore enduring issues such as the nature of evil and the responsibility an individual has to his family and society at large. This companion is designed for general readers and scholars interested in Burke's work.

James Lee Burke is an acclaimed writer of crime novels in which protagonists battle low-life thugs who commit violent crimes and corporate executives who exploit the powerless. He is best known for his Dave Robicheaux series, set in New Orleans and the surrounding bayou country. With characters inspired by his own family, Burke uses the mystery genre to explore the nature of evil and an individual''s responsibility to friends, family and society at large.

This companion to his works provides a commentary on all of the characters, settings, events and themes in his novels and short stories, along with a critical discussion of his writing style, technique and literary devices. Glossaries describe the people and places and define unfamiliar terms. Selected interviews provide background information on both the writer and his stories.
