About the Book

LaSTANZA: NEW ORLEANS POLICE STORIES Seventeen short stories chronicle the life of a police officer from his days as a patrolman to a homicide detective back to his childhood when he caught his first killer at age eight. The characters from the LaStanza novels are all here: Bob Mason, Mark Land, Jodie Kintyre, Paul Snowood, Felicity Jones and Stan the Man Smith (the world's greatest patrolman ever - just ask him). There are also women LaStanza will never forget from Xanthe to Cora, Regina, Guinnevere, Gabrielle and of course, Lizette. Beyond stories of crime and murder are tales of lunatics, an airplane crash, a man with moon hands, a very nimble burglar, a wild horse and an icy Sicilian murderer whose body count ends in a sleazy New Orleans motel when Det. LaStanza is assigned the case. Previous novels in the LaStanza series include: Grim Reaper #1 - Lauded for its hyper-realistic description of homicide work, this novel begins the adventures of New Orleans Police Homicide Detective Dino LaStanza. The Big Kiss #2 - Detective LaStanza is drawn into a deadly confrontation with an out-of-control La Cosa Nostra hit man. Blue Orleans #3 - Throws LaStanza into the midst of a Latin American killing circle and the alluring, young daughter of a murder victim. This book received critical praise for its strong setting, compared favorably to the Bond novels of Ian Fleming. Crescent City Kills #4 - Murder victims, dumped along a barren stretch of river batture in Algiers, have one ally left, an unrelenting Det. LaStanza who refuses to quit in his dogged pursuit of justice. This novel received critical praise for its gritty portrayal of police investigations. The Big Show #5 - While pursuing a cunning rapist-murder terrorizing New Orleans, LaStanza and his partners are drawn into a racially-charged murder investigation. In Homicide, where few detectives work one case at a time, detectives push themselves to their limits to bring murderers to justice. New Orleans Homicide #6 - The Easter Weekend of 1986 is particularly violent. Three murders are deliberate acts of violence. LaStanza and his partners begin a meticulous, relentless pursuit of the killers and will use whatever deliberate acts necessary to bring justice to the victims and their families.
