Murder at the Pontchartrain (Sydney Lockhart Mystery #6) by Kathleen Kaska

Im Sydney Lockhart. I solve murders, most of which I’m the primary suspect. My boyfriend/partner, Ralph Dixon, and I came to the Pontchartrain Hotel in New Orleans to get married. Instead, Dixon’s in jail for a double murder. I’m in a swamp, spying on the KKK.

Helping me untangle this mess is my bubble-headed cousin Ruth who’s undercover as a hotel chef. My twelve-year-old charge, Lydia LaBeau, dressed as a voodoo queen, is looking for clues at Pat O’Brien’s.

Rip Thigbee, a ghost detective, is my only hope. So, mix yourself a Hurricane and join me in the Big Easy for another historic hotel murder case.
