Cold Steel Rain

Nothing stays dead in New Orleans.

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. And nobody—least of all Boudrieux or the crooked cops who control the NOPD—is going to lift a finger to help him.
