New Orleans’ Seedy Side: A Murder on Mardi Gras Published by Outskirts Press

Outskirts Press announces the latest highly anticipated action and adventure fiction from Fort Lauderdale, FL, author Jake Jasper.

Fort Lauderdale, FL, February 06, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press, Inc. has published A Murder on Mardi Gras by Jake Jasper. The author's most recent book to date is a 6 x 9 paperback in the action and adventure fiction category and is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The webpage at www.outskirtspress.com/JakeJasper was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.

Down-and-out travel writer Jake Jasper thinks that his publisher’s tight deadline is his worst problem. His Caribbean sailing adventure is interrupted by an order to complete an assignment in New Orleans, or his publisher’s attorneys will come after him. Upon his arrival, Jake hires an old friend, a seedy local, as a tour guide through the frenzy leading up to Fat Tuesday. After an evening of heavy drinking, Jake and his guide are facing murder charges. To make matters worse, they have less than eighteen hours to halt the deadly criminal plot that they’ve been unwillingly pulled into.

Full of New Orleans color and characters drawn from the author’s personal experiences, A Murder on Mardi Gras is a compelling, hair-raising tale. Jake begins a quest to bring justice to a murderer and thwart a criminal conspiracy in this opening book of an exciting new series.

250 pages in length, A Murder on Mardi Gras is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the action and adventure fiction category.
