After a long hiatus due to a car wreck that nearly cost him his life, Greg Iles has got a new book out called Natchez Burning. I haven't read it yet, but I've been told that it is top notch. Thus ends my current contribution to this thread as all I have been reading lately are Jack Reacher books. But they are entertaining.

Greg spoke here about the book, so I went and heard him. He signed my book. Told him I was from Monroe, La and spent a lot of time over on Lake St John and Lake Bruin. He added that Concordia Parish is all in the book and Monroe will come into play at the end of the book.

This new book, which is 700 pages long is one of three news books in the Penn Cage or Natchez series. They will each come out a year apart.

I also found it interesting that Greg, like Penn has a young, good looking fiance'.
