A Separate Country
No Customer Reviews
A SEPARATE COUNTRY is the second novel in the four novel anthology New Orleans Rhapsody. New Orleans is the deep South and has more murders per capita than any other city in the country. It is also home to the Garden District which is an oasis that boasts some of the greatest classical beauties and most sophisticated culture anywhere. New York's legendary detective and poet Jimmy Croft marries into this society and finds himself in a Manichean world of gruesome death and golden light. Somehow it is appropriate that his ravishing wife is a mystery writer who chairs Tulane's Creative Writing program. In a thirty day period, the city finds itself prey to a serial killer who is murdering its Bourbon Street prostitutes and a paid bomber who blows up a synagogue and its rabbi. It is also home to an East Berlin Writer In Residence at Tulane who finds herself the object of a paid European assassin. Croft is shocked by what the NOPD has to contend with, but Evelyn, his wife, takes it in stride. "I wouldn't say it was exactly normal, darlin', but in New Orleans it's not all that abnormal either." Croft finds his wife's words to be true and has his work cutout for him. This edition has the same text as previous editions but has a different cover.
