Norman Woolworth delivers another beautifully crafted, well-researched story featuring
unlikely hero Bruneau Abellard—antiques-dealer, lover of the finer things in life, and accidental
detective. What a pleasure it is to once again spend time with this growing cast of colorful,
eccentric characters that includes New Orleans itself, which Woolworth masterfully evokes in a
plot steeped in the city’s rich musical tradition.
