If 'hot mess' was a zip code, I'd own every property in it... While my relationship with my boyfriend, Ryan, seems to be falling apart at the seams, there's not much I can do about it because my entire life is pretty much heading the same way. As if dealing with my temperamental and difficult niece wasn't hard enough (especially when she won't stop arguing with my ghostly roommate), I suddenly find myself the owner of a... dog? Daschel randomly shows up on my doorstep one day which means I've inherited another responsibility I can't afford. But Daschel is no ordinary dog... he's intelligent beyond reason, but I'm not sure how or why. My life is about to get a whole lot weirder when I find myself at The Old Absinthe House where I'm meant to meet with legendary New Orleans pirate, Captain Jean Lafitte. I've come to learn all I can about the deceased children who keep stealing paranormal items and the witch in the French Quarter who's been throwing snakes into bars. But when Ryan goes missing after my visit to the Absinthe House and I wake up with no memory of the night before, I have a feeling something bad has happened. Something really bad...
