New Orleans, 1940's. The city hums with jazz and sin, but beneath the music and moonlight, something dark stirs in the bayou. When the bodies of the Broussard sisters are discovered, marked with mysterious veves carved into their flesh, Detective Solène De Clermont is assigned the case-her biggest yet. As the only female detective in the NOPD, she's used to proving herself. But this case? It's different. The deeper she digs, the stranger things become. A local fisherman accused of murder-but is he truly guilty?
A police chief desperate to close the case before the truth is known.
A voodoo priestess who never blinks-and always smiles.
And a curse buried deep in Solène's own bloodline. As visions begin to haunt her, whispers creep through the walls, shadows stretch where they shouldn't, and the spirits of the bayou seem to call her name. Solène isn't just solving a crime-she's unraveling a dark legacy that has been waiting for her all along. The spirits want something.
And they will not be denied. Will Solène uncover the truth before it consumes her? Or was she always meant to be part of it?
