Alligator Pear

Young artist Fleur D'Hemecourt is as breathtaking as the surreal beauties she paints and as decoriously aloof. Haunted by the childhood loss of her parents, she returns to Post WWII New Orleans and the foreboding mansion on St. Charles Avenue to claim her estate, with the intention of continuing her art studies in Europe. Her plans soon change when she and Louis Russo, a handsome young attorney meet. But a series of accidents and near misses convince her that someone is after her life. Dark secrets soon begin to surface--painting shadowy images of family, friends and the man she dares to love.
