New Orleans Mourning (Skip Langdon #1)
“When the smiling King of Carnival is killed at
Mardi Gras, policewoman Skip Langdon is on the case. She knows the upper-crust
family of the victim and that it hides more than its share of glittering
skeletons. But nothing could prepare her for the tangled web of clues and
ancient secrets that would mean danger for her--and doom for the St. Amants...."
The basic
story is a fairly good one however following the POV was at times tiresome. I
had chose to read this book thinking I might be interested in the series
because it is set in New Orleans however descent the basic story, I was
completely turned off by the abrupt ending. I felt that so much more could have
been done with this story. Characters could have been developed more and
certainly a more satisfying ending could have been constructed. Fairly early in
the reading I considered putting it down but I continued on hoping for …
something!
