As more bodies appear, each staged with false symbols and cruel mimicry of sacred rites, the team must confront the question: Is someone using New Orleans’ culture as a weapon?
With help from Mama Léonie, revered Voodoo priestess, and a city caught between faith and fear, Reggie tries to expose the truth.
In a town where nothing stays buried for long, the real danger may not be who killed but why.
In New Orleans, the dead speak, and someone is twisting their words.

When Jules Benoit’s cousin Loli disappears after publicly challenging Dimas Cray, a charismatic figure reinventing Afro-Romani traditions, Jules sets out to find her.

As the line between history and invention blurs, Jules and Reggie must navigate a guarded community, confront buried truths, and decide whether exposing Dimas will fracture the very culture they hope to preserve.
At stake is more than one woman’s safety. It’s the survival of a people’s story.
Hokkani Boro is a tense, atmospheric novel of resistance, memory, and reclamation, where the greatest trick is turning myth into power, and the only defense is remembering who you are.
