Serpent Light: A detective, a dancer, and a deadly New Orleans secret. Where the saints pray and the magic kills.
In the heart of New Orleans, where the echoes of jazz and ancient magic fill the air, Detective Jason Chalk thought he had a firm grasp on the city's shadows. But his world begins to unravel when a routine investigation leads him into a realm where faith and mysticism blur into something much darker.
Aida Devine, a captivating dancer at one of the city's leading gentlemen's clubs, has always intrigued him. As their connection deepens, Jason discovers that she holds secrets far beyond what he imagined. Can Jason and Aida navigate New Orleans’ hidden spiritual landscape, where Catholic saints, voodoo practitioners, and ancient forces exist in a delicate balance—and in ways Jason can’t fully understand?
As a major astrological event approaches, Jason finds himself drawn into a struggle where magic, faith, and power collide. To protect Aida and the city he loves, Jason must navigate a web of religious conflict, secret societies, and age-old rituals, facing choices that will change everything he thought he knew about life, love, and the supernatural.
Serpent Light is a dark, romantic urban fantasy that blends the gritty allure of noir with the mysticism of New Orleans. At its heart is a passionate, dangerous love story where faith, magic, and fate intertwine—setting the stage for a journey that will challenge everything Jason believes about destiny and sacrifice.

I DO JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER IF I LIKE THE COVER MAKES ME WANT TO READ IT. I THINK THE COVER ON THIS BOOK IS REALLY BEAUTIFUL. AFTER READING THE DISCRIPTION IT HAD SOME OF THE THINGS I'M A SUCKER FOR; MYSTERY, NEW ORLEANS SETTING AND VOODOO MAGIC. IT HAD EVERYTHING I LIKED BUT IT WAS LACKING A SPARK. AARGH! IT JUST NEVER REALLY TOOK OFF AND THEN IT ENDED KIND OF ABRUPTLY, FOR ME IT WAS VERY DISAPPOINTING. ;<
