Up to page 200 or so. Will finish tomorrow
Fitzpatrick, the ATF agent who is also involved in the case, dies in a staged accident. Dave Robicheaux miraculously survives the same accident, but falls off the wagon.
Alcoholism: Burke shows all the negatives--ruins relationship with Annie; should lose job; risky, stupid behavior. But there's also the glamor of it, the surrender to the dark forces is always a little glamorous. Dancing with the devil.
Passages of note: Bad guy gets eaten by pigs. Drug addicted, high 20 year old: "That's gross. Shouldn't you take him to a funeral parlor or something. Yuk."
Life's byways: "Your honor, I have no idea how I got from there to here."
On middle class DUI's in the slammer: "expected to be treated with the courtesy due good Kiwanians."
"copacetic" Slang word for "excellent." Never heard it, odd "slang."
