Last week for my first The Listener crime roundup of 2024 I reviewed three fab books; two brand new reads and arguably my top 2023 read that's finally out in Aotearoa so I can finally rave about it in print to my fellow Kiwis! #greatreads #crimefiction #bookreviews James Lee Burke

Written in the very different voice of Clete Purcel, this is a reminder, if one were needed, not only of how good James Lee Burke is, but also how versatile, even in his 88th year. We’re fortunate to have him.

What a review! CLETE brings the quintessential James Lee Burke with "the noir style, the atmosphere of the area as thick as the humidity of the nearby swamps, and characters so fully fleshed out that they jump off the page." @bookreporter Read it here: bit.ly/4cnOreK
