Introducing New Orleans homicide detective Quentin Archer in the first of a brand-new mystery series.When a prominent New Orleans judge is brutally murdered, former Detroit cop Quentin Archer is handed the case. His enquiries will lead him into a world of darkness and mysticism which underpins the carefree atmosphere of the Big Easy.
