Camryn Alexander, a chronically single thirty-four-year-old true crime enthusiast, just wants to spend a weekend in New Orleans with her mom and sister before her sister gets married. But the discovery of a secret journal at the century-old Canal Street Bed and Breakfast promises to turn their weekend getaway into an experience they will never forget.

Does it hold clues about Olivia’s disappearance?

How is the handsome stranger staying at the bed and breakfast connected to the case?

Come along with the Alexander girls on their adventures in the Big Easy that include beignets, Cajun cuisine, streetcars, drag queens, cemeteries… and unexpected romance and mystery.
