A Vodou priestess turned amateur sleuth investigating a ritual murder is embroiled in an insidious case of corruption that reaches beyond the shadows of New Orleans. After solving a crime blamed on Vodou in New Orleans' French Quarter, Vodou priestess turned amateur detective Reina Dumond has returned to her benevolent work as a healer. But when her friend and enigmatic client Evangeline ' Vangie' Stiles comes to her for a spell, Mambo Reina quickly realises what Vangie really needs is a sleuth. Something is amiss in the Stileses' marriage. Five thousand dollars has inexplicably appeared in the bank account Vangie shares with her scam-artist husband, Arthur, and she smells trouble. So does Reina. Especially when her investigation into Arthur' s likely new con leads to murder. Considering the manner of death and the signs on the victim' s body, Reina recognises it for what it is: ritual magic of the vodouisant kind. As Reina digs deeper, she encounters a conspiracy exploiting vulnerable youth - one of whom may have abilities just like hers. With the help of her friends Darryl and Tyka, Reina must hone her ever-evolving skills to uncover a mystery that reaches further than she imagined. ' Urban fantasy fans will be drawn in by the vibrant NOLA setting and the charming cast. ' - Publishers Weekly' Take a Vodou priestess turned amateur sleuth and a perplexing murder. Toss them both in a pot and sprinkle in New Orleans flavor, hot and sultry, then add a big dash of Mambo magic. Stir. Repeat. And, bam, you have The Foreign Exchange by Veronica Henry. Mambo Reina Dumond is back! Let the good times roll!' -Tracy Clark, two-time winner of the G. P. Putnam' s Sons Sue Grafton Memorial Award for the Cass Raines PI series
