Coming in June!
Look for
Knight’s Big Easy
(Knight’s Ransom prequel episode: includes Jazzy Brass’s debut!)
Voodoo, hoodoo and a girl named Poodoo make this year’s Mardi Gras the most fun but also the most dangerous party of all for E Z Knight.
Knight goes to New Orleans to find Parole Officer Tamara White Cloud’s AWOL USMC son, and finds out L/Cpl Billie White Cloud isn’t the only one who’s gone missing.
He uncovers the largest human trafficking organization since the US slave emancipation. Led by a fat-cat politician, US Senator James Bourdieu, a.k.a. the “Teflon Senator,” the slave ring preys on young runaways and homeless kids in third-world countries. They sell these children into prostitution and for sweat-shop labor.
Knight works with a retired jazz musician named Black Zack who restores old horns in a shop called Jazzy Brass. They team up to find Billie and to stop the slave-traders. However, Knight’s old musician sidekick might be more than he appears. Black Zack claims the marijuana he smokes is for medicinal purposes. But when the pickup the old horn tooter’s driving is run off the road and catches fire, smoke from the alfalfa bales in the back gives Knight a high unlike any he’s had before.
Time is running out. A cargo ship loaded with over 500 children is on its way to port. With the threat of being exposed, Senator Bourdieu has ordered the ship sunk immediately before it sails into shallow water. But Knight’s not that worried about the two-dozen armed men on the slave ship—it’s the Voodoo witchdoctor who won’t rest until he’s turned E Z Knight into a zombie that’s making his skin crawl.
(Spoiler alert: This is Jazzy Brass’s debut. Black Zack’s female golden retriever is pregnant. At the end… well, you guess—)
Knight’s Big Easy
Chapter 1 (following a prologue)
All she’s wearing are high heels, Mardi Gras beads, a .45 and a smile that stretches all the way across her lovely face.
She stands over me in her magnificence—I seem to be lying in her bed.
I quickly realize I have no clue where I am or how I got here.
