I've always been fascinated by New Orleans, where despite hurricanes, fires, and floods, time has stood still. I hope you'll enjoy my tale of blackmail, death threats, and sophisticated shell games, as my brand new PI solves a pair of murders in the Big Easy and the black water bayous of home." --Mary Ellis, author Mary Ellis has written twelve award-winning novels set in the Amish community and several historical romances set during the Civil War. Her latest, Midnight on the Mississippi, first of a new mystery series, Secrets of the South, is set in New Orleans.
