Reviews
On the day of his wife's funeral, New Orleans attorney Edward Livingston tries to interest his grandson in helping with his longest-running case. Ever since 1928, when a local newspaper indicated that Jean Lafitte, John Paul Jones, and Napoleon Bonaparte were all buried in a tiny bayou cemetery, Edward has been obsessed with convincing the Lafitte Society that there were two Jean Lafittes. Edward's re-creations of past events bring history to life and should attract readers interested in historical anomalies and/or nonmurder mysteries. A first novel.
