Dixie City Jam (1994) Signed First Edition Reference

Dixie City Jam takes Robicheaux into a plot involving a sunken Nazi U-boat in the Gulf of Mexico, neo-Nazi treasure hunters, and the labyrinthine corruption of New Orleans. Published in 1994, it represents the mid-period Robicheaux novels where Burke had settled into a productive rhythm — one novel per year, each maintaining the high prose standard while varying the antagonists and settings.

First Edition Identification

Signed Copy Market Values

Solidly mid-list in the Burke collecting hierarchy. Signed copies are readily available from this period, and the larger printings keep prices accessible. A good entry point for collectors building the Robicheaux run.
