So Small a Carnival

Wes Colvin, a New Orleans reporter, receives an anonymous phone call from a man who wants to tell him a story. But when Wes goes to meet his contact at a French Quarter bar, he finds the place a bloody shambles and all its inhabitants machine-gunned to death just moments before. With the help of his friend “Rat” Trapp, NOPD Captain of Homicide, Wes investigates the motive for the slaughter. Among the suspects is an Uptown beauty, Denise Lemoyne, the granddaughter of one of the victims: Auguste Lemoyne, a former Louisianian politician. If he can survive, Wes will uncover the story of a lifetime: the truth behind the assassination of former governor and senator Huey Long.
