Ute i dypet finnes de, likene av de tyske ubåtmannskapene som under annen verdenskrig lå ved munningen av Mississippi og ventet på amerikanske oljetankere. Som barn hadde førstebetjent Dave Robicheaux mareritt om de døde sjøfolkene. Som student kom han tilfeldigvis over vraket av en av båtene mens han dykket. Det er denne hendelsen som mange år senere – i et New Orleans på vei mot tusenårsriket – setter både hans og andres liv i fare. Hvorfor er en jødisk organisasjon og en dreven skurk fra det irske miljøet interessert i båten? Hvor kommer den italienske mafiaen inn i bildet.

To dødsdømte fanger skal overføres til et annet fengsel. Tee Beau Latiolais, som ser ut som et barn i voksne klær, og Jimmie Lee Boggs, en profesjonell leiemorder. Ansvarlig for transporten er førstebetjent Dave Robicheaux. De flykter og etterlater seg to lik og en hårdt såret Dave Robicheaux. Og dette er bare begynnelsen. Minos Dautrieve, en gammel venn av Dave og agent i FBI, er ute etter en mafiaboss i New Orleans, Tony Cardo. Han ber Dave bli politispion, og fremskaffe bevis for at Tony er involvert i omsetningen av narkotika. I New Orleans finner vi også Jimmie Lee Boggs.

Sonnier-familien har en mørk og dyster bakgrunn, og Dave Robicheaux kjenner de fleste av hemmelighetene deres. Men selv han blir rystet når fortidens mudder kommer opp til overflaten, forlengst tilbaketrengte demoner blir synlige igjen, og vold og drap med økende hyppighet oppsøker de tre Sonnier-søsknene, som han har kjent fra de var barn. Det er en veritabel heksegryte Dave Robicheaux med velkjent stahet stikker hånden ned i, sterkere krydret enn i cajun-sjappene i New Orleans՚ bakgater, med ingredienser som CIA, gangstervelde og Ku Klux Klan.

Filmskuespilleren Elrod T. Sykes er – ifølge ham selv – i stand til å "se ting". Som liket av en afrikaner med en kjetting rundt kroppen. Og døde sørstatssoldater. Men hvem tar alvorlig en mann som påstår han har overnaturlige evner, når han er så full at han har problemer med å holde Cadillacen på veien? De blankslitte knoklene han finner i en bortgjemt sump, er likevel håndgripelige nok. Og cajunen Dave Robicheaux, førstebetjent ved sheriffkontoret i Iberia Parish, var øyenvitne da mannen med kjetting ble drept – lynsjet – i 1957.

Kriminalbetjent Kay Sharp blir utsendt til Blackwater River, der liket av en 17 år gammel jente flyter i vannet med en håndskåret medaljong rundt halsen.

Dersom jenta er Rose, hvor har hun vært til nå? Dersom det ikke er henne, hvorfor har hun på seg medaljongen? Kay begynner å nøste opp et nett av løgner og bedrag som har pågått i flere tiår.
