Thriller Police Procedural | Mystery Woman Sleuth
In the thrilling fifth book in the critically acclaimed
series that’s “edgy, dangerous, but pulsing with life”
(Bill Ott, Booklist), a Mardi Gras parade turns deadly. It’s Mardi Gras in New Orleans and rookie cop Maureen
Coughlin has no idea what she’s in for. Her night working
the parades begins calmly enough―until a half-naked man
careens through the crowd and throws himself onto the
hood of an oncoming SUV. As she tries to deal with the
incident amid the pulsing chaos of the parade, Maureen
hears gunshots. Moments later, with three wounded and a
handful of drunken witnesses, Maureen has a full-fledged
investigation on her hands. Who was the shooter? Who was
he after? Who’s the next target? City bigwigs begin
pressuring Maureen and her crew for quick answers. And
with an amateur camera crew intent on capturing “the real
Mardi Gras” for their YouTube channel, an incompetent
supervising detective, and tense race relations in a city
more likely to mistrust cops than ever, it’s going to be
a very long night―and a memorable first Mardi Gras―for
Maureen. With The Devil’s Muse, the acclaimed crime writer Bill
Loehfelm conjures rowdy New Orleans in all its mess and
marvel, and sends Maureen deep into the city on another
wild, high-octane adventure.
