Download Louisiana Bigshot: Talba Wallis Mystery Series, Book 2 AudioBook Free
Meet the hottest detective duo in New Orleans - she's Queen Latifah. He's Danny DeVito. Or they might be if this were a movie - in print, they're Talba Wallis and Eddie Valentino. Talba's received the beauty, the brains, the computer savvy, the poetic heart, the junior, the right demographic, and the sass. Eddie's received the detective agency. Also a brief fuse and yes, wisdom. Not only do they make it work, they have got chemistry. And they need every skill and ounce of courage they can summon in this complex tale of an decades-old conspiracy only now arriving home to roost, with the murder of Talba's good friend Babalu Maya. Babalu is actually Clayton Robineau, princess of the local banker in a small Louisiana town that bears her name, a town buried under the weight of its malevolent past. Something terrible took place to Clayton as a kid, but it was far from the most common "something terrible". As Talba and Eddie investigate, they think it is was an injury - both psychic and physical - so bizarre, so shameful and damning that almost anyone in town would kill to protect it up. Roughly it seems to the New Orleans duo as they dodge bullets and what moves for the law in this malignant enclave, fetid with the rot of its corruption, yet motivated to keep its sordid skeletons buried. Never have Faulkner's words engagement ring so true as in Clayton, Louisiana: "Days gone by is never useless. It isn't even previous."
