520    "On his way to visit an inmate at a Texas prison who has 
       promised him information, Detective Dave Robicheaux stops 
       off at an amusement park to watch a teenaged Elvis-like 
       rock-and-roller from his hometown of New Iberia named 
       Johnny Shondell playing to a crowd of swooming young 
       girls. One of them is another New Iberia teenager named 
       Isolde Balangie. The Shondell and Balangie families are 
       longtime rivals in the New Iberia criminal underworld. Yet
       Johnny and Isolde are in love. And like Romeo and Juliet, 
       Johnny and Isolde are being kept apart by their families. 
       In fact, Isolde tells Robicheaux, her parents have given 
       her to the Shondell patriarch to be used as a sex slave. 
       Seeking to uncover why, Robicheaux gets too close to both 
       Isolde's mother and her father's mistress. As retribution,
       the elder Balangie orders a mysterious assassin to go 
       after Robicheaux and his longtime partner, Clete Purcell. 
       Yet this is unlike any hitman Robicheaux has ever faced: 
       he has the ability induce hallucinations and might be a 
       time-traveling reptilian. A Private Cathedral is both 
       vintage James Lee Burke and one of his most inventive 
       works to date--mixing romance, violence, mythology and 
       science-fiction to produce a thrilling story about the all
       -consuming, all-conquering power of love"--|cProvided by
