Micah Dunn investigates a murderous plot to discredit an archaeologist In steamy downtown New Orleans, Gregory Thorpe is presenting an exhibition that could rewrite the history of the ancient Mayans. But when fake artifacts begin appearing alongside the authentic ones, Thorpe’s reputation is thrown into jeopardy. To trace the fraud, Thorpe hires Micah Dunn, a world-weary private detective whose tour in Vietnam cost him the use of one of his arms and provided fodder for decades of nightmares. PI work is boring, repetitive, and safe, but clearing Thorpe’s name will expose Dunn to the kind of danger he thought he left behind in the jungle. Dunn has experience working with archaeology, and he knows the field is cutthroat. Thorpe is not well liked on the Tulane campus, and any of his colleagues or grad students could be responsible for the fraud. When one of the suspects turns up dead, Dunn realizes that someone in New Orleans will kill to keep the Mayan past buried.

A decomposed body, found in the ruins of Palenque, Mexico, turns out to be that of a well-known Key West author, Rage Stone. His friends cannot accept the Mexican authorities' verdict of death by suicide and, once again, determined to find out what really happened, the bumbling detectives of author Grant Spradling's Maya Sacrifice-David Ward, opera librettist Quincy Brewster, and gorgeous heiress Margaret Pendleton-take matters into their own hands. As a consequence, they run afoul of Key West drug dealers, art dealers, and the county sheriff before jetting off to Xalapa where their friend had been writing and researching a horror novel. David finds a clue that Cortes may have hidden Moctezuma's treasure in the Palenque ruins during the conquistadors' march to Honduras. Suspecting that Stone had followed Cortes's journey, David sets out to follow Stone's only slightly warm trail. "Palenque Murder "takes the reader from Key West to Xalapa, Mexico, and from there on to Tlacotalpan, Coatzacoalcos, Villahermosa, San Cristobal de las Casas, Merida, and back to Key West, where the pieces of the puzzle fall into place.

Isn't Justice Always Unfair? explores the uncommonly long and uncommonly rich relationship between the fictional detective and his or her South. It begins with the New Orleans expatriate, Legrand, uncovering Captain Kidd's treasure on an island off Charleston, South Carolina; it covers the satires and parodies of Mark Twain and the polished stories of Melville Davisson Post and Irvin S. Cobb; and it concludes with surveys of the many good and excellent writers who are using the form of the detective story to compose inquiries into the character of life in the South today. At the center of Isn't Justice Always Unfair? lies an analysis of a most remarkable phenomenon: William Faulkner's exploitation of the genre as an avenue into his postage stamp of Southern experience, Yoknapatawpha County.

The importance of New Orleans in American culture has made the city's place in the American imagination a crucial topic for literary scholars and cultural historians. While databases of bibliographical information on New Orleans-centered fiction are available, they are of little use to scholars researching works written before the 1980s. In The New Orleans of Fiction: A Research Guide, James A. Kaser provides detailed synopses for more than 500 works of fiction significantly set in New Orleans and published between 1836 and 1980. The synopses include plot summaries, names of major characters, and an indication of physical settings. An appendix provides bibliographical information for works dating from 1981 well into the 21st century, while a biographical section provides basic information about the authors, some of whom are obscure and would be difficult to find in other sources. Written to assist researchers in locating works of fiction for analysis, the plot summaries highlight ways in which the works touch on major aspects of social history and cultural studies (i.e., class, ethnicity, gender, immigrant experience, and race). The book is also a useful reader advisory tool for librarians and readers who want to identify materials for leisure reading, particularly since genre, juvenile, and young adult fiction—as well as literary fiction—are included.

He’s also a fighter, persevering with his mechanic’s shop even after his wife left him and his business turned sour. But today, he is a broken man. A neighborhood child has accused him of child molestation, and Calvin begs Micah to clear his name. A private detective whose time in Vietnam taught him how to fight dirty, Micah knows that proving Calvin’s innocence will require him to fight dirtier than he ever has before. Calvin’s enemies include dissatisfied customers, a scheming landlord, and a rival mechanic out to destroy what’s left of the Autry shop. But as Micah digs into Calvin’s past, he finds his friend is not as honest as he appears. He may not be a child molester, but Calvin Autry could be guilty of something just as evil.
