Anna Pigeon is at her ethical and crusading best in this novel. When she decides to spend some leave in New Orleans with her friend, Geneva, she meets Jordan, a strange-looking creepy guy who turns out to be Clare, a woman sought for the murders of her husband, two children and his mistress. The trouble is that Clare, an excellent actress, doesn't remember doing it and has retreated in the character of Jordan, a young male who survives no matter what. Anna believes Clare and the two set out to find the missing children. What they uncover is violence, more death and child prostitution. The book is exciting and flows well; the murders are quite graphic as are the pornographic scenes. The book deals with child prostitution and gives observation pornographic details that I could do without. However, Anna is a heroine I really like and her dilemmas are always realistic. How much should she reveal to her new husband, Paul, without damaging the relationship between herself and the man she loves.
