Dead dead girls

Young Black women like Louise Lloyd are ending up dead. Following a harrowing kidnapping ordeal when she was in her teens, Louise is doing everything she can to maintain a normal life. She´s succeeding, too. She spends her days working at Maggie´s Café and her nights at the Zodiac, Harlem´s hottest speakeasy. Louise´s friends, especially her girlfriend, Rosa Maria Moreno, might say she´s running from her past and the notoriety that still stalks her, but don´t tell her that. When a girl turns up dead in front of the café, Louise is forced to confront something she´s been trying to ignore--two other local Black girls have been murdered in the past few weeks. After an altercation with a police officer gets her arrested, Louise is given an ultimatum: She can either help solve the case or wind up in a jail cell. Louise has no choice but to investigate and soon finds herself toe-to-toe with a murderous mastermind hell-bent on taking more lives, maybe even her own.
