Look no further than "Parchment and Old Lace," the latest audiobook by New York Times best-selling author Gerry Schmitt. In this exciting installment of the Carmela Bertrand series, our beloved scrapbook shop owner finds herself knee-deep in intrigue when a bride-to-be is brutally murdered in the famous Lafayette Cemetery.
\n\nA Divine Evening Takes a Dark Turn
\n\nCarmela Bertrand is living a fairy-tale evening, enjoying a romantic dinner with her beau, Detective Edgar Babcock, at the renowned Commander's Palace. The atmosphere is cozy and the food is divine. But their bliss is short-lived when Isabelle Black, a self-absorbed bride-to-be, interrupts their night to boast about her upcoming wedding.
\n\nUndeterred by the interruption, Carmela and Edgar decide to take a leisurely walk after dinner. However, their romantic stroll is rudely interrupted by a blood-curdling scream coming from within the cemetery. Rushing to investigate, they come face-to-face with a horrifying sight: Isabelle's lifeless body sprawled across an aboveground tomb, strangled to death with a piece of vintage lace.
\n\nA Reluctant Investigator
\n\nCarmela would much rather leave the sleuthing to her detective boyfriend, but when Isabelle's sister, Ellie, asks for her help, she can't resist. Ellie, a tarot card reader at Juju Voodoo, believes that the key to solving Isabelle's murder lies in their shared past. And so, Carmela reluctantly agrees to unravel the tangled web of Isabelle's enemies.
\n\nAs Carmela delves deeper into Isabelle's life, she uncovers a host of suspicious characters with motives aplenty. Was it a jilted lover seeking revenge? A jealous rival trying to steal the spotlight? Or perhaps someone from Isabelle's past with a score to settle?
\n\nA Race Against Time

With her keen eye for detail and her talent for solving puzzles, Carmela hopes to draw out the culprit and bring justice to Isabelle's family.
