A beautiful city with ugly traditions of corruption and racism. A black man set to hang for a murder he didn't commit. A world-famous author - and detective - who isn't about to let it happen. This is the sequel to Heck's acclaimed debut, Death on the Mississippi.

Another Fun Mystery with "Twain"

I do like the writing style even if somehow in the back of my mind I feel I'm reading Murder He Wrote in 1800s lol. Again enough twists and turns to keep me interested. I am listening and the reader does a great job interpreting the characters. I do like the interesting side tidbits describing the city or some historical (or semi-historical as it were) stories. Some of the voodoo descriptions and scenes seemed a little long/drawn out but overall were important in context of how these activities were perceived/experienced in the era and would have affected thought processes at that time even if today we may or may not think similarly...

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
