The Carriage House Murders

In the heart of New Orleans-where history bleeds into the present and secrets linger in the humid air-Detective Mariah Beaumont faces the most unsettling case of her career. A young woman is found posed like a forgotten relic on a streetcar bench, wearing a Mardi Gras mask out of season, a 19th-century key clutched in her rigid hand. When more victims appear-each staged as if pulled from a bygone era-Mariah is thrust into a deadly narrative written long before she was born.
Every clue leads back to the powerful LaRoche family and a series of unsolved murders from 1880, buried under generations of wealth, silence, and fear. As Mariah fights to balance the crumbling pieces of her personal life with the escalating violence, she uncovers a chilling truth:History isn't repeating itself. Someone is reenacting it. And the killer believes they're restoring justice to the dead.
But as the city panics and her family fractures, Mariah realizes the killer isn't working alone. A second figure-hidden, watching, orchestrating-has been guiding the violence from the shadows. He calls himself the Keeper. And he believes Mariah is the final chapter. When the past refuses to stay buried, the truth becomes a hunt through centuries of lies-and only one detective can stop history from claiming new victims.
A gripping police procedural with gothic undertones, The Carriage House Murders launches a chilling new mystery series set against the haunting backdrop of New Orleans.
