The dead play on

Musicians are being murdered in New Orleans. But Arnie Watson apparently died by his own hand. When Tyler Anderson plays the saxophone he inherited from Arnie, a soldier and musician who died soon after his return, he believes he sees visions of his friend's life--and death. He becomes convinced Arnie was murdered and that the instrument had something to do with whatever happened, and with whatever's happening all over the city. Tyler knows his theory sounds crazy to the police, so he approaches Danni Cafferty, hoping she and Michael Quinn will find out what the cops couldn't. Or wouldn't. After all, Cafferty and Quinn have become famous for solving unusual crimes.

This was my least favorite of the Cafferty and Quinn series.

Danni & Quin are on the hunt for a “magic” sax, that someone is killing musicians to get a hold of. Unfortunately, I just didn't love this one. First there wasn't really any paranormal angle at all, and one of the things I really like about Heather Graham books is the history, and detailed stories we get of places etc. around New Orleans. This book had almost no history, or any of the good stuff I love.

Add in the fact that it had one of the most obnoxiously whiny characters ever cough Jenny cough and some of the red herrings made no sense. Like why did Amy think Sharon was hiding something? I know it was to throw us off, but it led absolutely nowhere. I also figured out who the baddie was fairly early in this one.

Overall this one was just OK for me.
