This Edgar Award-nominated short story featuring New Orleans music
historian/detective Nick Travers was written nearly 15 years ago -- and
then forgotten by author Ace Atkins. The story was rescued from an old
floppy disc and first published in 2008, in a special, 10th anniversary
edition of Crossroad Blues. To Atkins' surprise, that edition earned an
Edgar Award nomination for the forgotten Nick Travers tale. The story
shows Nick at his best: in New Orleans, at JoJo's Blues Bar, helping an
old friend, challenging the powerful, and getting in way over his head.
