"With rocker chick Clementine Toledano, DeVore offers a flawed, fabulous and deeply human protagonist with the kind of baggage many women will recognise, so deeply connected to the bayou that the reader can smell the blue gum trees."--Deborah Grabien, author of The J.P. Kinkaid ChroniclesClementine "Q" Toledano is the seasoned front-woman of New Orleans jazz band QT and the Beasts. Usually able to resist any man who thinks his Louisiana charm is enough of a reason for her fall into bed with him, Q is battling her own inexplicable attraction to Ben Bordelon, owner of a successful Uptown hotspot. When The Beasts' bass player is accused of murder, Q delves into the seedy underbelly of the Crescent City to prove his innocence. As she watches gigs vanish one by one - after all, no one wants a band with a murdering bassist playing at their daughter's bat mitzvah - Q uncovers a secret that forces her to finally deal with her past, while current events may very well jeopardize her future.
Autorenporträt
W.E. DeVore is a musician, producer, and audio engineer. In her career as a musician and sometimes rock star babysitter, she has been fortunate to know some of the most entertaining and unique individuals that seem to only grow from the Louisiana soil. She's also experienced some things that a nice Jewish girl from Montana probably shouldn't know about - but it does make excellent fodder for a little fiction. DeVore has lived in Southeast Louisiana for the last two decades and currently lives in Baton Rouge, although her heart will always be in New Orleans - sweaty, dirty, crime-ridden, music-filled wonderland that it is.
