- Inhalt:
- In this New Orleans-set mystery, the author of Cajun Nights "combines an insider's knowledge with a real flair for making the reader's skin crawl" (Booklist). There's a killer stalking the New Orleans French Quarter. Each victim is found in the same gruesome condition: the body bloodied by a gardening fork, and the throat torn out by . . . what exactly? That's the question on the minds of medical examiner Andy Broussard and his young partner, criminal psychologist Kit Franklyn. Broussard suspects the perpetrator isn't human at all, but a monster of terrifying legend. Only when their investigation draws them deep into Bayou country do Broussard and Franklyn discover just how monstrous some humans can be . . . With this second sharp-witted mystery in the series featuring Broussard and Franklyn, "it's hard to beat [Donaldson's] combination of cool science and explosive passion in the heart of humid Louisiana" (The Commercial Appeal, Memphis).
- D.J. "Don" Donaldson was born in 1940 and is now a retired professor of anatomy and neurobiology. He holds a PhD in human anatomy and his entire academic career was spent at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, where he published dozens of papers on wound-healing, and taught microscopic anatomy to thousands of medical and dental students. Donaldson lives in Memphis, Tennessee, and is the author of five medical thrillers and seven forensic mysteries, the latter featuring the hugely overweight and equally brilliant New Orleans medical examiner, Andy Broussard, and his gorgeous psychologist sidekick, Kit Franklyn. Of these, it has been said that they contain "lots of Louisiana color, pinpoint plotting and two highly likable characters," whilst the Los Angeles Times states "the autopsies are detailed enough to make Patricia Cornwell fans move farther south for their forensic fixes . . . Splendidly eccentric local denizens, authentic New Orleans and bayou backgrounds."
