Sheriff Dave Robicheaux returns to New Orleans to investigate the beating of a controversial Catholic priest and murder of three teenage girls in this intense, atmospheric entry in the New York Times bestselling series.

For Dave Robicheaux, there is no easy passage home. New Orleans, and the memories of his life in the Big Easy, will always haunt him. So to return there means visiting old ghosts, exposing old wounds, opening himself up to new, yet familiar, dangers.

When Robicheaux, now a police officer based in the somewhat quieter Louisiana town of New Iberia, learns that an old friend, Father Jimmie Dolan, a Catholic priest always at the center of controversy, has been the victim of a particularly brutal assault, he knows he has to return to New Orleans to investigate, if only unofficially. What he doesnā€™t realize is that in doing so he is inviting into his lifeā€”and into the lives of those around himā€”an ancestral evil that could destroy them all.

A masterful exploration of the troubled side of human nature and the darkest corners of the heart, and filled with the kinds of unforgettable characters that are the hallmarks of his novels, Last Car to Elysian Fields is Burke in top form in the kind of lush, atmospheric thriller that is ā€œan outstanding entry in an excellent seriesā€ (Publishers Weekly).

James Lee Burke is aĀ New York TimesĀ bestselling author, two-time winner of the Edgar Award, and the recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship for Creative Arts in Fiction. He has authored forty novels and two short story collections. He lives inĀ Missoula, Montana.

Will Pattonā€™s film credits includeĀ Halloween, Boarding School, Megan Leavey,Ā American Honey,Ā Meekā€™s Cutoff, A Mighty Heart, Remember the Titans, The Mothman Prophecies,Ā Armageddon,Ā andĀ No Way Out.Ā He starred inĀ Swamp ThingĀ on the DC Universe streaming platformĀ and was seen in five seasons of the TNT seriesĀ Falling Skies.Ā HeĀ has won Obie Awards for his performances inĀ Fool for LoveĀ andĀ What Did He See?Ā He is also known for his audiobook recordings of the work of Stephen King, James Lee Burke, Denis Johnson, and William Faulkner.
