Beneath The Creole Stars
Ray Lybarger came to New Orleans to write a simple article on Mardi Gras history, but the Crescent City had other plans for him. Beneath its vibrant celebrations and centuries-old traditions, a darker world lurks, one of secrets better left buried, of forces beyond human comprehension, and of rituals that demand respect.
When Ray, eager to make his mark as a fledgling journalist, disregards the city’s unspoken secrets, he disappears without a trace. The police investigation yields no answers, and his family is left in turmoil.
Fifteen years of unanswered questions have haunted his nephew since childhood. Determined to uncover the truth, Eddie Schmitt retraces his uncle's steps, hoping to bring his mother the closure she’s longed for all these years.
But as Eddie delves deeper into the mysteries of his uncle Ray's disappearance, something inexplicable stirs in the shadows. He hears cold whispers spoken in hidden alleys and can no longer ignore fleeting glimpses of figures in the dark, and a chilling sense of being watched. A skeptic by nature, he struggles to dismiss these eerie experiences as mere superstition, yet the more clues he unravels, the more Eddie realizes his uncle's cryptic journal entries may have been a warning.
Following the trail of breadcrumbs his uncle left behind, he finds himself drawn into a web of secrets that may cost him more than he is willing to pay to find the truth, the price for those secrents may well be his very soul. Will Eddie break the cycle, or will the same darkness that claimed his uncle take him as well?
In Beneath the Creole Stars, you will come to learn nothing is as it seems, and some mysteries are better left undisturbed.
