“You cannot wash red dirt out of clothing, and you cannot unsee what you have seen.” Retired Detective Lt. Robbo Davidson grapples with ghosts of cases past, one victim or another looming in the blackness over his bed, denying him sleep. At last, Robbo resolves to lend voice to these ghosts conceding, “I think if I do not, the evil I have seen may never let me sleep.”

Set in DeSoto Parish between bayous and the Big Woods, The Evil I Have Seen was awarded the Gold Medal as Reader’s Favorite True Crime of 2022.

Detective Lt. Davidson and criminal justice reporter PJ Jones bring to life six murder cases from his four-decade career in Louisiana law enforcement. Readers call their work “fascinating and spellbinding.”
