Summer and Smoke and Murder

In the short story, Summer and Smoke and Murder, New York Times bestselling author Nevada Barr takes the reader on a wild ride through her hometown of New Orleans when a woman sees a serial killer and, deciding the corrupt and incompetent police force will be of no help, decides to use the high crime of the city as a resource rather than a curse to bring the perpetrator to justice. At six cents a page, Summer and Smoke and Murder is a steal.
