New Orleans has always kept secrets. Beneath the glittering lights of Bourbon Street, behind the elegant ironwork of the French Quarter, and deep in the bayous that stretch beyond the city's edge - darker stories have always been unfolding. True Crime of New Orleans takes you into the heart of America's most mysterious city to uncover the murders, disappearances, and criminal empires that shaped its history. From the unsolved Axeman killings that terrorized a city in the early twentieth century, to the brutal mob wars that ran through the Jazz Age, to modern cases that still haunt local investigators - this book reveals the full, unvarnished truth behind the myths. New Orleans is a city of celebration and shadow. Tudor Finneran cuts through the folklore to deliver meticulously researched accounts of real crimes and real victims, told with the pace and tension of a thriller. Inside you will discover:
- The Axeman of New Orleans: a killer who taunted a city and was never caught
- The rise and fall of the New Orleans crime families
- Cold cases that baffled investigators for decades
- The crimes that the guidebooks never mention For fans of true crime podcasts, murder mysteries, and American history, this is essential reading. If you love Ann Rule, Harold Schechter, or My Favorite Murder - this is your next obsession.
