The Devil’s Jazz
A Historical Thriller Inspired by the True Story of the Axman Serial Killer in 1918 New Orleans
“Captivating... a compelling true-crime-style horror novel about taking down... the serial killer that only the Crescent City could spawn.”
— Independent Book Review
“They have never caught me and they never will... I have been, am, and will be the worst spirit that ever existed either in fact or the realm of fancy.”
— The Axman
New Orleans. 1918.
An unsolved serial killer is terrorizing the city.
Then he makes a demand.
On a single night, every home must play jazz… or die.
And New Orleans obeys.
As music floods the streets in a desperate act of survival, retired detective Giancarlo Rabito is pulled back into a nightmare he thought he had escaped. The Axman is no ordinary killer. He leaves no trace, no pattern reason can hold—only fear, growing louder with every strike.
Inspired by the true story of the Axman murders, this historical thriller brings to life one of America’s most chilling unsolved serial killer cases. Targeting the Sicilian immigrant community of 1918 New Orleans, the killings blur the line between true crime and something far more unsettling.
The deeper Rabito investigates, the less this feels like a man he can catch.
Is the Axman human?
A myth?
Or something far more dangerous hiding in plain sight?
Set against the volatile backdrop of Jazz Age New Orleans, this gripping historical thriller blends true crime, Southern Gothic suspense, and a touch of the supernatural—where paranoia spreads, secrets hide behind every door, and silence can get you killed.
Perfect for readers of:
Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice
The Alienist by Caleb Carr
The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt
Fevre Dream by George R.R. Martin
“LoCoco has a poetic way with prose... anyone who enjoys historical fiction, the occult, or true crime would enjoy this.”
— NetGalley Reviewer
“Early 1900s New Orleans comes to life... rich in atmosphere... fearing a brutal killer that seemingly disappears into the night.”
— NetGalley Reviewer
