The Death Factory: A Penn Cage Novella by Greg Iles whets the appetite for his new release, NATCHEZ BURNING. The Death Factory refreshes our memories of Penn Cage, the mayor of Natchez, Mississippi, and former Assistant District Attorney of Harris County, Texas. We are reminded of his wife's death from cancer, his fragile young daughter, and the respectability of his parents, Dr. and Mrs. Tom Cage, while dealing with racism. I've missed Mr. Iles, absent from the literary scene due to a car accident five years ago. Welcome back.
