"Voodoo Heart offers a solid blend of supernatural horror and
hard-boiled detective fiction, and should appeal to horror devotees as
well as mystery buffs." -- Booklist
When Detective Lawrence Ribaud wakes alone in a bloody bed with his wife
missing, he knows this is more than just a mysterious case of murder.
His wife is the latest victim in a string of bizarre disappearances. All
across New Orleans, on one night each month, people are vanishing,
leaving behind nothing but a pool of blood on the bedsheets... and an
abandoned heart. Ribaud doesn't believe in voodoo, but he soon finds
himself moving through the underbelly of a secret society of snakes,
sacrifices and obscene rituals in search of the mysterious Black Queen
... and the curse of her Voodoo Heart.
