Whispers in the Quarter (Venom and Virtue #2)

The masks we wear in the Big Easy are both a blessing and a curse.

I should know—I’ve worn more than most.

I was Sarah, then Celeste, now Evangeline.

Each name, a new layer peeled away, revealing secrets and danger beneath. I came to New Orleans for justice, but found myself ensnared in a conspiracy far beyond the bayou.

Just as I gain a foothold in this twisted world, my old mentor—the one who taught me everything about survival—reappears, threatening to destroy everything Ive built.

Three men complicate my carefully laid plans:

A brilliant madman who sees the monsters inside us all,

A musician whose soul is as deep as the bayou,

And a fallen saint finally embracing his darkness.

Each of them stirs something in me—dangerous, undeniable, and perhaps the only thing keeping me from falling apart.

The deeper I delve into New Orleans shadowy underworld, the higher the stakes become. The organization that killed my sister has roots twisted into the citys very foundation. And I am determined to bring them down, one by one—even if it means losing myself to the darkness that lurks within.

Sometimes the deadliest shadows are the ones we cast ourselves.
