Adding to the confusion of the murder scene is the strange glyph found written in blood near her body. Together, the murder method and the glyph mean one thing to the police: They’ve got a strange one on their hands.Enter Margo Fortier, former topless dancer, now cream of New Orleans society (due to an advantageous marriage to the gay scion of an old and powerful family), as well as the local society gossip columnist.
