It's gonna be a great day! Or, so she thought. Andi Anna Jones, so-so travel agent, amateur sleuth, doesn't suspect her least favorite client, Stewart (The Pain) Payne, will set off circumstances that lead to disappearance and death. After his wife is a no-show for a convention in New Orleans, his threat to sue Graves Travel for "ten times more than it's worth", and Andi's wish to honor one of her late dad's requests, leads her to The Big Easy in search of Grace Payne. Five unsolved murders, a body caught in a crawfish cage, and a mysterious candle, magic, and incense shop, takes Andi deep into the bayou on a hunt for clues. Will another victim be added to a serial killer's list, or is the main suspect closer to Andi than she thinks?
