Beau Bissonet and Tollison Cruz are back, along with Bruce, Auggie, and now Bastien, Tollisonβs ex-partner. From the initial spark between them in Zurich, Bruce and Bastienβs attraction has flared, and Bastien has come to the Big Easy to explore what lies ahead for them.
Itβs Mardi Gras, and New Orleans is alive and festive, teeming with excited tourists and locals alike. The first few parades go off without a hitch. And then a man is targeted, shot, and killed right in the middle of a crowded street. Auggie and Bruce are called in to investigate, but before they even get started, more deaths occur, one at each of the next two parades. Auggie realizes heβs dealing with a serial killer and jumps into action.
Beau and Tollison join the investigation and stumble upon some similarities in the murders that are too strong to ignore. But before they can unravel the perpetratorβs motives and get ahead of him, he fires another shot that affects the tightly knit group of friends in a way none of them could have ever imagined. Together they must all come up with a plan to stop the killing and serve justice in the process.
