Die Tote im Eisblock

A ruthless look at contemporary America. The explosion of an oil rig causes an unimaginable environmental disaster on the coast of Louisiana. Nature will take years to recover from this. Detective Dave Robicheaux should also be recovering: from an injury that nearly cost him his life. However, when a young woman is brutally murdered and no one seems to care about the victim, he takes on the case. It quickly becomes clear to Robicheaux that there is a connection between the explosion and the murder. This time, his investigations do not lead him into dark alleys and shabby dives; instead, they take him to noble villas and mansions—places where even the police seem powerless. Fortunately, he is not alone, and together with his friend Clete, he is determined to hold the influential adversaries accountable despite everything.
