In the heart of the Louisiana Bayou, where shadows cling to the mist and whispers of the supernatural linger, lives Bernard Begnaud, a detective as eccentric as the swamps that cradle him. When a chilling murder, steeped in ancient voodoo rituals, rocks the opulent heart of New Orleans, the NOPD finds themselves hopelessly out of their depth. Enter Begnaud, a man whose genius for deduction is matched only by his disdain for authority and his uncanny ability to see the unseen. As he delves into the city's underbelly, he uncovers a conspiracy woven by a secret cabal of powerful businessmen, their influence reaching the highest levels of power. But to stop them, Begnaud must confront not only his own demons, but also the terrifying truth that lies at the heart of this city's soul - a truth that could shatter the very foundations of New Orleans
