Little Black Girl Lost: Book 5: Queens of New Orleans (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781935825074)

In the previous entry in this historical suspense series, Ibo Atikah Mustafa, now known by the name Lauren Renee Bouvier, was captured alongside her former love and shipped off to the New World. There, she was sold into slavery by her captor, Captain Rutgers. Purchased by the kind Beaumont Bouvier, Lauren became a free and wealthy woman when her former slave master was murdered, leaving her a share of the considerable family fortune in his will.

Now, Lauren has discovered the shocking truth of who killed the man who purchased her and became her benefactor. Beaumont Bouvier was murdered by his own wife, Cadence. This betrayal is unthinkable. Lauren is furious. She decides that it is time for Cadence to die, and she will stop at nothing to make that happen.

Lauren enacts a complicated plan to expose Cadence treachery, which sets off a series of scandalous revelations that Lauren hopes will lead to Cadence's execution. But, New Orleans is a world full of lies, deadly schemes, and allied dalliances. Lauren doesn't know who all the players are. Nor does she have any allies, but she's determined to exact her brand of justice. She's all alone in a dark world, where her life could be snuffed out on a whim.

This historical drama book is full of twists and turns that create an unrivaled air of suspense, Lauren Renee Bouvier must be extremely careful as she designs a scheme unlike anything 1791 New Orleans has seen before. Can Lauren succeed? Or is her plan doomed to fail from the start? Readers will find themselves up all night to find out whether it will be Lauren or her enemies who succeed.
