A Valentin St Cyr mystery set in New Orleans in 1913. In this novel a demented attempts to wrestle the control of Storyville from Tom Anderson. A vivid look at new Orleans in the heyday of jazz and corruption. Fulmer delves into the world of human gratification and exposes one's inner fears and desires, but shows that appearances must be kept. Interesting portrayal of society.
