Synopsis … Author and the New Orleans 2025 Bouchercon Chair-Person Heather Graham has written a number of New Orleans mysteries and thrillers. Her love for the history, the culture and the undercurrent of the city is palpable. In Blood on the Bayou: Case Closed, we’ve chosen New Orleans based stories by authors who, like Heather, celebrate the fabric, the flavor and the craziness of this city by the Mississippi. Each story explores a different nuance of The Big Easy, and the reader will come away with an entirely different feeling about this historic river town.
