"Nothing stays dead in New Orleans. Not for long, anyway." No one knows this better than ex-district attorney Danny Chaisson - the dead show up in his bathroom mirror every morning, staring right back at him with hollow eyes. Chaisson is the legman for Jimmy Boudrieux, speaker of the Louisiana House of Representatives, for whom dirty dealing is more than just a way of life. So far so bad.
So when Danny makes his regular pick up of a briefcase full of handguns at a downtown Vietnamese restaurant, leaves the room for a moment and returns to find a bloodbath, he knows the next bullet has his name on it. As the lake of corruption laps ever closer, Danny realises that nobody - least of all Jimmy Boudrieux or the crooked cops who control the NOPD - is going to lift a finger to help him.
