Next Stop...Murder

(A Sleepy Carter Mystery - Book 9)

De: Brian W. Smith

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Detective Lizzy Silverman’s promotion to sergeant should be a triumph. Instead, it’s a trial by fire. Before the ink dries on her new title, she’s handed two homicide cases that couldn’t appear more different.

On the decaying grounds of the abandoned Jazzland amusement park in eastern New Orleans, a 27-year-old woman is found dead beneath a rusted carousel and hurricane-torn signage. Across the city, in the stately elegance of the Garden District, a 60-year-old woman is stabbed to death while riding on the historic St. Charles streetcar.

Different ages. Different worlds. No obvious connection.

But as Lizzy digs deeper, she begins to suspect the crimes are not random acts of violence, but carefully orchestrated moves in a larger, more dangerous game. And in a city where power hides behind wealth and tradition, she quickly learns that with rank comes responsibility—and challenges she never saw coming.

Fortunately, living quietly in her garage is Donald “Sleepy” Carter, a once-legendary detective whose brilliance still casts a long shadow over the department he left behind. From that hidden perch, Sleepy helps his protégé trace the invisible line connecting decay to privilege.

In Book #9 of this award-winning series, best-selling author, Brian W. Smith masterfully weaves a “who-dun-it” that will leave readers scratching their heads and blown away at the jaw-dropping ending.
