Night Watchman (The Tubby Dubonnet Series Book 8) - Plot & Excerpts
A solo artist was on stage, a spectrally thin man whose bushy white beard hid his mouth, and almost his nose and eyes as well, belting out the blues and loudly strumming a twelve-string steel guitar. His amp was the size of a small microwave but still made plenty of sound as he worked through “Mannish Boy.” Raisin’s date was there with him, the oil company engineer who had given him his car. She’d told Raisin she truthfully didn’t care much for the music, but he figured she liked him a lot. Her name was Sadie, and exploring the cultural depths of New Orleans with this weathered but entertaining man with the soft curly black hair seemed to suit her just fine. “The artist certainly looks like he lives his music,” she whispered into her boyfriend’s ear. “That’s Scotch he’s sipping from that paper cup,” Raisin whispered back. “And believe me, honey, we’re gonna have lots of fun.” He stroked her neck lightly with his fingers, then went back to drinking.
