My Juliet

John Ed Bradley

In his most enthralling novel since the acclaimed Tupelo Nights, John Ed Bradley tells a scorching story of sex and death in sultry New Orleans.

After years as an "actress" in California, Juliet Beauvais is drawn back to town with the promise of a big inheritance. But she finds her "dying" mother all too healthy and making other plans. Fortunately for Juliet, Sonny LaMott has been carrying a torch for her all these years, and he's easily lured into a scheme that's sure to get Juliet what she deserves. Twisted, gothically atmospheric, and replete with surprise, My Juliet is a deliciously dark and mordantly funny tale.
