When a fellow scrapbooker is bludgeoned with a religious statue in St. Tristan's Church, a stolen relic may hold the key to catching the culprit...

But if anyone can get to the bottom of the crime, it's Carmela's main squeeze, Detective Edgar Babcock-with a little assistance from some scrappy sleuths. As Carmela and Ava are drawn deeper into New Orleans' French Quarter in search of the missing crucifix, they discover that this is one killer they don't want to cross... SCRAPBOOKING TIPS INCLUDED!
