Lucia Caputo, a Pinkerton, partners with the Casey to help identify and capture the Axeman of New Orleans who is terrorizing the city by attacking immigrants with an axe. While Kelsey serves as a self-appointed protector of Angela Cipriani, a widowed lawyer, who Kelsey believes is a potential victim. Fear grips the city, but the blue notes of jazz soothe souls and open hearts to love.This is book 6 of 6 in the Zane Brothers Detective Series but is also standalone. I hold a BA in Theatre from Seton Hill University and a MA in Theatre from the University of Denver. Years ago, when still single, I acted in and directed plays in the Philadelphia area but suffered the fate of many artists, struggling financially. So I entered a career in sales. But, my creative spirit needed to express itself and several years, ago, I started writing historical romances. I discovered that writing historical romances is my passion. I love weaving historical personalities into my plot, interacting with my fictional characters. Recently, I began writing historical mysteries/intrigue and again, love the aspect of interspersing historical fact and personalities into my story line.I am married to a loving and supportive man with a Greek heritage (which influenced a couple of my novels) and we live in southern New Jersey. The three books in this series highlight mysteries occurring and intertwining with the murders of Leather Apron (Jack the Ripper) and the Torso Killer in slums of London known as Whitechapel.
