Thriller Legal
As a prosecuting attorney in Houston, Penn Cage sent
hardened killers to death row. But it is as mayor of his
hometown -- Natchez, Mississippi -- that Penn will face his
most dangerous threat. Urged by old friends to try to
restore this fading jewel of the Old South, Penn has ridden
into office on a tide of support for change. But in its
quest for new jobs and fresh money, Natchez, like other
Mississippi towns, has turned to casino gambling, and now
five fantastical steamboats float on the river beside the
old slave market at Natchez like props from Gone With the
Wind. But one boat isn't like the others. Rumor
has it that the Magnolia Queen has found a way to pull the
big players from Las Vegas to its Mississippi backwater. And
with them -- on sleek private jets that slip in and out of
town like whispers in the night -- come pro football
players, rap stars, and international gamblers, all sharing
an unquenchable taste for one thing: blood sport -- and the
dark vices that go with it. When a childhood friend of
Penn's who brings him evidence of these crimes is brutally
murdered, the full weight of Penn's failure to protect his
city hits home. So begins his quest to find the men
responsible. But it's a hunt he begins alone, for the local
authorities have been corrupted by the money and power of
his hidden enemy. With his family's lives at stake, Penn
realizes his only allies in his one-man war are those bound
to him by blood or honor: Caitlin
Masters, the lover Pennfound in The Quiet Can Game and lost
in Turning AngelDanny McDavitt, the heroic
helicopter pilot from Third DegreeTom Cage, Penn's
father and legendary local family physicianWalt
Garrity, a retired Texas Ranger who served with Penn's
father during the Korean War Together
they must defeat a sophisticated killer who has an almost
preternatural ability to anticipate -- and counter -- their
every move. Ultimately, victory will depend on a bold stroke
that will leave one of Penn's allies dead -- and Natchez
changed forever. After appearing in two of Iles's most
popular novels, Penn Cage makes his triumphant return as a
brilliant, honorable, and courageous hero. Rich with
Southern atmosphere and marked by one jaw-dropping plot turn
after another, The Devil's Punchbowl confirms that Greg Iles
is America's master of suspense.
