Professional reviews
"Dead Man's Blues is a gripping historical crime novel from Ray Celestin, the author of The Axeman's Jazz, winner of the CWA John Creasey New Blood Dagger. A stunning historical mystery from Ray Celestin, following on from the events of The Axeman's Jazz. “Celestin smartly evokes the atmosphere of 1919 New Orleans, and a city dominated by music and the mob. Gripping.” SUNDAY TIMES, on The Axeman’s Jazz."
