A Cautionary Tale

New Lagniappe story up, set in my dawlin' New Awlins. Check it out.



A snippet: 

two silhouettes on the shade"Pretty soon, though, some disturbing news filters its way down to Ed. The newspapers are full of it. Some society babe, apparently, last year’s queen of Comus, has had her house on St. Charles burglarized. Nothing missing, ma’am, except her shadow. This is a new one, even for New Orleans cops. They sit around scratching their heads and sipping hot coffee even in the heat, because that's what cops do."
