Big Easy Backroad — Martin Hegwood

Martin Hegwood brings Dixie grit and flavor to a novel of a Florida Gulf mob murder that twists faster than a back swamp road.

After drowning in a barmaid's sea-green eyes, P .I. Jack Delmas agrees to track down her missing pal--only to find him murdered, voodoo-style. Delmas suspects the druglord who rules New Orleans' underworld. But when a second murder rocks the city, Delmas is the chief suspect. Trapped in a web of corruption and secrets, Delmas has one chance to clear his name--and maybe save his hide.
