How can Jill resist her call to find out what really killed the young man?


Jill's partner, Nathan, has a business meeting in NOLA and joins Jill. It's a death investigation that takes Jill from the French Quarter to the Ninth Ward, to the famous cemeteries of the city. Jill and Nathan have to work to stay alive in the foreign environment of New Orleans while battling the threat of greedy humans.
