“‘What the hell?’, I uttered softly. The faint vision I witnessed rocked the foundation of my beliefs to the core; the chills running up my spine were undeniable. Instantly, the gray area between fact and fiction blurred into one. I was waste deep in a river of shit.”

Brian Denman, a retired CIA agent and lethal mercenary turned private investigator, unearths the scum and scandals among the politically powerful. When his friend Phillip Wilder, owner and editor of Urban Legends tabloid, recruits him to gather information for a blockbuster story, Brian cascades into a series of unexpected events. Sent to New Orleans, Brian probes into the centuries old myth of what the Vatican conceals on the third floor of the Ursuline Convent. As he delves deeper into the mystery, Brian is hurled into New Orleans’s dark and dangerous underworld, a labyrinth culminating in an epic battle of destiny and revenge.

The city of New Orleans – home of Mardi Gras, beads, high octane beverages a place where you can party close to 24/7. New Orleans also has a few dark secrets, ghosts, voodoo and vampires. If you have the chance to go to New Orleans do it! It is an experience of a lifetime. While you’re there make time to take one of the Vampire Tours. You will be amazed at the history of these creatures in the Big Easy. This story plays with one of the best kept secrets there. The Ursuline Convent more specifically what is kept on the third floor and why no one is allowed up there. It isn’t the Ark of the Covenant but something darker more forbidden/evil.

Bruce T Jones has given us an adventure that brings the rumors to life. He takes us to the dark side of the Big Easy. If you haven’t been to New Orleans you will still enjoy this story, Bruce has given us just the right amount of back story to become captivated with the characters and events. He paints a good picture of what the city looks like and the people who live and play there. That is not to say he hasn’t taken some artistic leeway to give us the excitement this particular folklore requires. As one of the people who have seen the Ursuline Convent and heard the stories I found this story to be a page turner.
