The Blue Parrot: A Casablanca Reimagined Novel

The Blue Parrot is a gripping tale of intrigue, danger, and passion, set against the exotic backdrop of the 1950s. Inspired by Casablanca and the lost radio play Café Istanbul, this thrilling novel reimagines a world steeped in mystery and suspense.

Sam, the once-celebrated pianist of Rick’s Café, now haunts the dimly lit corners of the Blue Parrot, a far cry from the glamour of his past. But when enigmatic figures—ranging from former Nazi officers to corrupt colonels—arrive in Casablanca, all searching for the elusive Rick, Sam is thrust into a shadowy web of secrets and deception that spans continents.

From the smoky bars of Casablanca to the vibrant streets of Havana, The Blue Parrot delivers a fast-paced noir thriller that captures the essence of Casablanca while charting a bold new narrative. Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful new series.
