Like a spicy gumbo, Tony Dunbar's mysteries are highly seasoned stews made up of all sorts of tasty victuals, mixing regional color, humor, and a legal thriller plot in this three-alarm story of bayou badness. New Orleans lawyer and saloon owner Tubby Dubonnet is the only thing keeping a hapless janitor out of the clink when the head of an eminent scientist is found in his possession. The prosecutors suspect voodoo rituals lie behind the horrible discovery, and it is in Tubby's hands to save the life of his unhelpful client, who seems to have something to hide.
