When Stanga turns up dead shortly after a fierce beating in front of numerous witnesses at the hands of Clete Purcel, the case takes a nasty turn, and solving the mystery of the Jefferson Davis deaths becomes more important than ever.\u003cbr\u003eAdding to Robicheaux’s troubles is the matter of his adopted daughter, Alafair, on hiatus from Stanford Law for a semester and home in New Iberia to put the finishing touches on her novel. Her literary pursuit has led her into the arms of Kermit Abelard, celebrated novelist and scion of a once-prominent Louisiana family whose fortunes are slowly sinking into the bayous. In Robicheaux’s mind, Abelard’s association with a sleazy ex-convict turned bestselling author named Robert Weingart puts him at the center of some very shady business, and Robicheaux fears he’s taking Alafair down with him. But at the same time he fears for Alafair’s well-being—and possibly her life—she’s becoming more distant toward him, convinced his concerns are just the paranoia of an overprotective father. To protect his daughter and clear his best friend’s name, Robicheaux will need every ounce of guts, wit, and investigative chops he can muster.\u003cbr\u003eFrom the creator of “one of America’s best mystery series” (\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal, \u003c\/i\u003estarred review), James Lee Burke’s The Glass Rainbow is a “superlative” (\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly, \u003c\/i\u003estarred review) bayou thriller.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMystery, Thriller \u0026amp; Suspense\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThrillers \u0026amp; Suspense\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrime\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eOrganized Crime\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":45261812564158,"sku":"1982100265-4","price":15.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/81a48xv4BxL.jpg?v=1754082687","url":"https:\/\/shop.sustainablebooks.com\/products\/1982100265-the_glass_rainbow_a_dave_robicheaux_novel","provider":"Sustainable Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
