The call from ex-Klansman Aaron Crown couldn't have been more unexpected. Sentenced to forty years for the decades-old shooting of a civil rights activist, Crown should have been out of Iberia Parish, Louisiana, for good.

Election candidate Buford LaRose wants Detective Dave Robicheaux to ignore Aaron's calls, promising Robicheaux a lucrative job when he makes governor. Worse still, Buford's wife, Karyn, seems unhealthily interested in getting very close to Robicheauxβ€”just like old times. The LaRoses, each for their own reasons, want Crown's case buried.

Cadillac Jukebox dives deep into a world of political intrigue and personal temptation, where Detective Dave Robicheaux must navigate the dangerous waters of loyalty, justice, and desire.
