Sex, Murder, and Voodoo, in new Big Easy romantic horror

[Giovanni Gelati]

Alexandrea Weis makes New Orleans dark side sizzle in “The Keeper of the Dead”

NEW ORLEANS – This second installment of Alexandrea Weis’s “NOLA Series”, “The Keeper of the Dead” , has Angele Soule’s quiet job as Director of Cemeteries turned upside down when body parts of a coworker begin appearing in front of the tomb of the famous Voodoo Queen, Marie Laveau.

 

During the investigation Angele meets Lou Glapion, a NOPD Homicide Detective, who is convinced the woman’s murder is not related to the notorious voodoo practitioner. But Angele is not so sure and begins to probe into the dark art of voodoo.

 

When another woman from her office is found dead, Angele feels she may become the killer’s next victim and turns to the handsome detective for help. Suddenly trapped in the sinister world of voodoo, Angele finds her fate resting in the hands of the dead Marie Laveau.  For Angele Soule, being The Keeper of the Dead is about to take on a whole new meaning.  

 

“I wanted to develop a story that blends romantic horror with the history, culture, and traditions of my New Orleans,” Weis says.

Romantic mystery readers and fans of  “To My Sense” and “Recovery” will appreciate the suspense and emotional edge Weis brings to the table in “The Keeper of the Dead.”

“The Keeper of the Dead” is published through Trestle Press and is available for sale online at Amazon.com, Barnes & Nobles.com, and other channels.
