Publisher's Synopsis
"Jeri Howard's on vacation in the Big Easy, but a friend asks a favor and the vacation turns into a case. Laurette Mason has given up her job and apartment and disappeared with her mercurial musician boyfriend. Slade, as he calls himself, has a hard time with authority. His response to being thwarted is to strike out, sometimes in a deadly fashion. With the help of a local NOLA PI, Jeri's investigation takes her from the French Quarter and the clubs on Frenchmen Street to warehouses and apartments in workaday New Orleans. The road leads from Louisiana back to California, and an explosive end"--.
