The Mysterious Axeman of New Orleans
What kind of killer could chisel out the panel of a door and creep inside without waking a soul? How was he so light on his feet that nobody heard him coming on the dark, moonless nights on which he struck? That’s what the people of New Orleans were asking themselves when their city was terrorised by a mysterious Axeman who targeted Italian grocers, leaving nothing behind but blood, fear, and a discarded weapon - and taking nothing with him except the secret of his identity. He came and went like a phantom, spreading a wave of brutality through the City of Festivals that would not easily be forgotten. Who was the Axeman of New Orleans?
