"Seemingly unconnected events are pulling Mycroft Holmes in several directions at once. There are the usual dispatches to read and spy networks to monitor, England's and those of the enemies of the Empire. European politics seem to be heating up again and, to prevent the leaders of an anarchist group from reaching England's shores, Mycroft must, much to his dismay, become part of the intended reconciliation of a husband and wife." -- Jacket.

Sunshine comes to New Orleans looking for her elusive dreams, but the tempting night life of the French Quarter caters to her darker desires--cheap drugs, bad men, and the thrill of living on the edge. Her search leads her into the wrong patch of darkness and brutal death at the point of an unusual knife. The crime scene--her body framed by the remnants of botched Voodoo ritual--creates a brief media sensation but leaves the NOPD with nothing but a cold trail and false leads. Three unlikely friends, drawn together by shared grief and anger, embark on a quest to find Sunshine's murderer and exact vengeance. Maestro, a master of both the pool cue and the rapier, prefers to live under the radar, but to average Sunshine he'll risk exposing his less-than-savory past. To Bone and Alex, Sunshine was family, and the pain of her savage murder is made even mor crusing by their recent estrangement from her. They find unexpected allies among other denizens of the French Quarter, but their hunt leads them to the darkest corners of the Quarter, into the dangerous depths that lie beneath its benign party-town surface--and into shattering revelations about themselves. Death and destruction lie in the cards, and blood will lead to blood before honor and desire are satisfied" --Cover, p. 4.
