Description
The 19th novel in the highly acclaimed Dave Robicheaux series.
Dave is in a recovery unit in New Orleans, where a Creole girl named Tee Jolie Melton visits him and leaves him an iPod with the country blues song 'Creole Belle' on it. Then she disappears. Dave becomes obsessed with the song and the memory of Tee Jolie and goes in search of her sister, who later turns up inside a block of ice floating in the Gulf. Meanwhile, there has been an oil well blowout on the Gulf, threatening the cherished environs of the bayous.
Creole Belle is James Lee Burke at his very best, with beloved series hero Dave Robicheaux leading the charge against the destruction of both the land and the people he has sworn to protect.

Another winnder from Burke & Patton
Many people, even fans, would suggest that Burke too often rips off himself. This is evident here, but he is such a masterful writer of character and dialogue that, despite the recurring themes, I didn't want to stop listenting; particularly in the second half.
Patton's narration, as always, makes it compulsive listening. If you've never listened to/read Burke, maybe choose something else (his previous one, Feast Day of Fools, although a sequel, is an amazing book - it can be read stand-alone with no problems).
This volume adds strongly to Burke's canon, without introducing something especially new. Absolutely a must for fans at least.

Another winner for James Lee Burke
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes I would recommend it but I agree with the previous reviewer who stated Burke "often rips himself off". It is the reason I have given the story 3 stars.
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
The ending was appropriate.
Which character – as performed by Will Patton – was your favorite?
It has to be Clete Purcel. Having said that, Will Patton's narration is (as always!) excellent.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
There was no particular moment but I find Burke's description of Louisiana's natural beauty, the bayous and the Gulf very moving.
Any additional comments?
I enjoyed this book and will continue to follow James Lee Burke's books...especially if they are narrated by Will Patton.
