[Dave Robicheaux 17] • Swan Peak

TAKING A MUCH-NEEDED BREAK from the gritty, hurricane-ravaged landscape of their Louisiana home, lawman Dave Robicheaux, his wife, and his buddy Clete Purcel head to a friend’s Montana ranch, where they hope to spend their days fishing and relaxing. But a storm of trouble descends on their wilderness retreat when two college students are found brutally murdered, and the three southerners are pulled into the twisted and dangerous snares of a vicious oil tycoon. All the while, Clete is haunted by memories of a bloody episode—the death of a mob boss from years before—that has him running from shadows in the rugged western hills . . . and Robicheaux must hunt down some deadly enemies a thousand miles from his New Iberia roots.
