Fascinator Fatale Erica Cicero

Caroline Bouchen is the proprietor of Chapeaux, the premiere French Quarter hat and accessory store in the heart of the oldest neighborhood in New Orleans. Being an accomplished businesswoman has its perks-she doesn't have to make deliveries very often. However, when Hattie Lafitte-Bordelon, the new socialite bride of Red Bordelon, insists that Caroline deliver a fascinator to the Garden District Caroline makes an exception. It wouldn't hurt to have one of the most prominent society belles donning a Chapeaux fascinator. Although being a hatter can involve a great deal of adventure, or so Caroline likes to think, she has never experienced anything so adventurous as stumbling across a murder victim when she is making her delivery at the grandest home in the Crescent City. Finding herself drawn to solve the murder, Caroline can't help but wonder what the dark truths are surrounding New Orleans' most wealthy. With her trusted friend, Scarlett, Caroline begins to unravel a murder that goes far beyond a crime of passion and shows the evils that lurk in the shadows of the Big Easy
