Murder in the Rue Chartres — Greg Herren

Murder hits the Big Easy.

In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, Chanse MacLeod returns to a different, shattered New Orleans in an attempt to rebuild his own life and face his own future. When he discovers that his last client before the storm was murdered the very night she hired him to find her long-missing father, he is drawn into a web of intrigue and evil that surrounds the Verlaine family.

Greg Herren is the author of six mysteries set in the city of New Orleans, including Murder in the Rue Dauphine and Murder in the Rue St. Ann, and he co-edited Love, Bourbon Street.
