The Axeman's Jazz by Ray Celestin
Set against the vibrant backdrop of 1919 New Orleans, this gripping historical crime novel weaves a tale of mystery and intrigue as a notorious serial killer known as the Axeman terrorizes the city. With jazz music echoing through the streets, three distinct characters—a detective, a mafia member, and a young woman with a knack for sleuthing—embark on a perilous journey to uncover the truth behind the gruesome murders. As their paths intertwine, they navigate a web of secrets, corruption, and racial tensions, all while the haunting melody of jazz plays on, adding a rhythmic pulse to their relentless pursuit of justice.
