Description
I’m Sydney Lockhart—PI, bride-to-be, and now prime suspect. My fiancé’s in jail for double murder, I’m spying on the KKK in a swamp, and my sidekicks include a ghost detective a voodoo kid, and my dizzy cousin Ruth in disguise. Welcome to 1953 New Orleans. Let the chaos begin.
Pour yourself a cocktail and enjoy a rollicking ride through New Orleans, where the food is spicy, the jazz silky smooth and the air thick with Voodoo superstitions.
