The Devil in Her Way
(OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, OverDrive Listen)
When Maureen Coughlin first appeared in The Devil She Knows, the New Orleans Times-Picayune called her "unforgettable" and "the character of the year." Booklist named The Devil She Knows one of 2011's ten best thrillers and declared Maureen "as compelling a character as this reviewer expects to see this year."
Now she's back in Bill Loehfelm's new thriller, The Devil in Her Way, and her life has changed in more ways than one: she's starting over in New Orleans as a newly minted member of the police force.
Kicking off her final week of field training, Maureen takes a punch from a panicked suspect bursting out of an apartment. Her training officer laughs it off, and the incident even yields a small victory: the cops recover a stash of pot and guns. But out on the street, on the fringes of the action, Maureen sees something sinister transpire between two neighborhood boys that leaves her shaken, and she knows there's more to the story than she's seen. As we follow Maureen's dangerous hunt for answers, Loehfelm leads us around New Orleans' most hidden corners and into its darkest outposts.
Bill Loehfelm is the real deal—a lauded thriller writer in the modern tradition of Dennis Lehane, Richard Price, and Michael Connelly. He knows the voices of his city. Like Lehane's Boston, Price's New York City, or Connelly's Los Angeles, Loehfelm's New Orleans leaps off the page, as vibrant, flawed, and unruly as his reborn, fire-hearted protagonist. In The Devil in Her Way, Loehfelm's talents flourish, and the result is a ruthless and propulsive thriller.

Starred review from March 4, 2013
Loehfelm’s excellent second novel featuring Maureen Coughlin takes the former Staten Island bartender to New Orleans, where she finds a fresh start with the NOPD and redemption trying to save one child from the violence of the streets. Although her first day as a rookie cop starts badly, with a suspect punching her in the stomach, the arrest uncovers a large stash of drugs and guns. But Maureen is more interested in two boys—one 12, the other an older teen—hanging around the crime scene. Her concern for the kids leads her to a shadowy figure who makes children into criminals before disposing of them. Aided by her training officer, Preacher Boyd, Maureen learns to be a cop and follow her instincts. Loehfelm meshes graceful prose with edgy suspense and an authentic view of New Orleans’ myriad neighborhoods, bars, and restaurants, where a “Café du Monde frozen au lait” is “the closest thing in this world to ambrosia.” Agent: Barney Karpfinger, the Karpfinger Agency.

- content: If it weren't for Renee Raudman's clear voice and solid narration, this listener would have abandoned Loehfelm's second Maureen Coughlin adventure. Maureen's character is engaging, but this story is not. In Loehfelm's first book, THE DEVIL SHE KNOWS, Maureen was a Stanton Island bartender who was waiting to get into the police academy. Now, she's a rookie cop in New Orleans, who is being mentored by Preacher Boyd, her police trainer. During an incident that begins as a domestic call and turns into a drug bust, she encounters a 12-year-old boy who, along with others young people, is being schooled for a crime by a shadowy figure. Unfortunately, that's it. Maureen saves the day in the book, but it's really Raudman delivery that keeps one's attention. She does a highly credible job with male characters--and she knows how to ramp up the action. A.L.H. (c) AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine
