Clementine Toledano mysteries #3

by W.E. DeVore

New Orleans musician, Clementine “Q” Toledano has more to worry about than a little rain canceling her performance at Jazz Fest. Her husband’s business is failing. Her best friend has stumbled into an adulterous affair. And her mentor has six months to live.

When an ex-lover finds out the hard way that cocaine and epilepsy don’t mix, Q convinces her friend, NOPD Homicide Detective Aaron Sanger, that it was no accident. Now she is once again at the forefront of a police investigation. While her career is on the fast track towards celebrity, she must figure out a way to balance the secrets she’s been sworn to keep, while searching for the truth everyone in her life is hell-bent on hiding.

Forced to decide between justice and the happiness of the man who saved her life, Q must examine her own choices and morality. After all, inside the sordid world of the New Orleans music scene, what’s a little murder and adultery between friends?

About the author

W.E. DeVore is a musician, producer, and audio engineer who currently pays the bills by writing technical manuals and specifications for professional audio products. In her career as a musician and sometimes rock star babysitter, she has been fortunate to know some of the most entertaining and unique individuals that seem to only grow from the Louisiana soil. She's also experienced some things that a nice Jewish girl from Montana probably shouldn't know about - but it does make excellent fodder for a little fiction. DeVore has lived in Southeast Louisiana for the last two decades and currently lives in Baton Rouge, although her heart will always be in New Orleans - sweaty, dirty, crime-ridden, music-filled wonderland that it is.
