NUDE IN RED Saturday - off-duty NOPD Homicide Detective John Raven Beau spots a long, tall brunette in a short black dress crossing a street just as a bank robber rushes out of a bank. Beau catches the robber and Miss Long-legs-in-a-black dress is there with a Glock in hand. She's a private eye and cousin of an old friend who warns Beau - she's a maneater. Beau can't resist the temptation. Jessie Carini is irresistible and finds Beau hard to resist as well. Monday - the new superintendent of police has a surprise for Beau, promoting him to Chief Inspector of the new Critical Investigations Unit (CIU) and assigns a murder case with a secret attached. Beau chooses his new partner, Juanita Cruz, and the two tackle a case involving high priced call girls, The Mafia, a Romanian organized crime syndicate and more victims. The four recurring characters in O'Neil De Noux fiction are all set in New Orleans - Jacques Dugas (NOPD Detective working in the 1890s and early 1900s; Lucien Caye (Private Eye working in the 1940s); Dino LaStanza (NOPD Homicide Detective working in the 1970s, now a Private Eye); John Raven Beau (NOPD Homicide Detective working today). De Noux's writing has received a number of awards including the prestigious SHAMUS AWARD for BEST SHORT STORY for The Heart Has Reasons. The SHAMUS is given annually to recognize outstanding achievement in private eye fiction. De Noux is also the 2009 DERRINGER AWARD winner for BEST NOVELETTE for Too Wise. The Derringer Awards are given annually to recognize excellence in the short mystery fiction form. In June 2012, De Noux's novel JOHN RAVEN BEAU was named 2011 POLICE BOOK OF THE YEAR by Police-Writers.com, a group that boasts of 1153 state and local law enforcement officials from 485 state and local law enforcement agencies who have written 2504 police books. A hyper-realistic crime story, JOHN RAVEN BEAU provides an intimate look into the beleaguered NOPD Homicide Division, a story that begins in the French Quarter and ends in a swamp, all within the city limits of America's eternal city, a city that cannot be destroyed - New Orleans. A second Beau novel was released in 2013 - CITY OF SECRETS. Books by O'Neil De Noux (all available as eBooks and trade paperbacks). Go to www.oneildenoux.net for links.
