  🎷 In the sultry shadows of 1918 New Orleans, death has a rhythm all its own. 
  When a string of brutal, axe-wielding murders shatters the city’s uneasy peace, Detective Louis Beaulieu is thrust into a chilling hunt for a phantom whose only calling cards are shattered skulls and bloodstained jazz notes. As fear grips the streets, the elusive Axeman sends a nightmarish ultimatum to the public: play jazz through the night—or face the blade. 
  With each new body, the line between madness and music blurs. Beneath the surface of this city steeped in secrets, something darker is composing a symphony of terror. Beaulieu must navigate a twisted maze of smoke-filled clubs, cryptic messages, and haunted minds—where every clue is a note in a macabre composition, and silence could be the prelude to death. 
  As the killer’s melody crescendos, Beaulieu faces a truth more sinister than he ever imagined—one that threatens to consume him and the soul of New Orleans itself. 
  The Axeman of New Orleans is a heart-pounding historical thriller where jazz and horror intertwine. Prepare to leave the lights on—and the music playing. 🔊 
  Some symphonies should never be heard...🎶

  That Dazzling Sun, Book 2 in The Tinsmith's Apprentice trilogy, continues the vivid coming-of-age story of Isaac Granger, slave to Thomas Jefferson, begun in Bechtel's marvelously adept debut novel, "A Partial Sun" in which Isaac begins his complicated apprenticeship at age fifteen as a tinsmith in Philadelphia in the fall of 1790.In this second book, Rachel Bringhouse, the tinsmith's daughter and Isaac's tutur, sails off to Englad to work alongside the famous social activist and poet, Hannah Moore, writing enthusiastic letters to Isaac and which Isaac answers back with assistance from the irrepressibly poetic cook's helper, Ovid. Meanwhile, Billey gardner, the feisty and opportunistic former slave of James Madison, pesters Isaac with notions of a business partnership; the charismatic Dr. Cornelius Sharp uses Isaac to confront Jefferson as a debt-ridden slaveowner; and the Reverend Richard Allen provides Isaac with a most surprising document.When an exuberant Rachel returns from England with a key insight and Isaac's hated nemesis Daniel Shady reappears, bent on revenge, the book rises to its crescendo, in which Isaac must rise to his own power and bargain at last with Thomas Jefferson on his own terms.
