Danny Chaisson's latest case is bid-rigging. But as his investigation proceeds, a gathering storm named Katrina blasts his world apart. Surrounded by death and destruction of New Orleans, the city he loves, Danny searches for one man who'd trusted Danny to guard his identity when he agreed to testify before a federal grand jury investigating corruption in the city's construction industry. But someone has leaked the identity of this crucial witness, and as the city begins to empty before the approaching storm, Danny learns that a pair of corrupt policment hired by the wealthy defendants in the case have begun stalking his client.--From publisher's description.

When a friend comes to him asking help to represent his son who is headed for a very nasty prison, Danny agrees to help Sam.
Sam is an engineer at a large cement company and is well aware of the fact that the cement manufactured is not up to standard. The owner of the company can get away with this because he gives bribes to politicians and any where it will be advantageous to him.
In order to reduce the sentence for his son, Sam is told he must testify about the low quality product, and what he knows about his employer.
Before the grand jury meeting, Sam is discovered as a key witness and kidnapped by two thugs hired by his boss to shut him up.
Taking his job seriously, Danny knows that a big hurricane is about to hit New Orleans, yet he decides to stay and find his client.
I've read many books about Hurricane Katrina and this book portrays a very accurate description of what happened when the poor quality leeves broke.
A good read with a lot of action. ( )
