"Voodoo River" by Robert Crais is another in his Private Detective Elvis Cole series which I've been reading in order. Although I did love this book, the pace didn't keep me up all night reading (like his other books) -- which is a good thing! In "Voodoo River" Cole is hired to uncover the biological roots of adopted actress, Jodi Taylor, who stars in a hit TV series. Everything needs to be hush-hush because it wouldn't do for any scandal to touch the much beloved all American girl she plays in her series. The quest leads Cole to Louisiaiana where he's partnered with a female attorney, Lucy Chenier, who works for a very prestigious law firm that gives him access to people he might not otherwise be able to get to. While working with Lucy, a romance develops but what Cole uncovers could be dangerous for not only Jodi Taylor but Lucy and himself. If they survive this investigation, will their romance survive the distance between Los Angeles and Louisiana? I hope it doesn't end here because they seem well suited to one another.
Crais was born in Louisiana and his knowledge of the state comes through in this novel. pazt
