About this ebook

Federal Agent Mark Francois of the New Orleans Branch of the Department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement knows, when it comes to smuggling, there can be no comparison: The best of them all must be, The Pontchartrain Connection! From time immortal, the City of New Orleans is the smuggler’s Nirvana. For Mark to be tasked with stopping any shipment of contraband illegally imported into the United States from the many ports lining the riverbanks along the Crescent City is an impossible assignment…But for a proud retired military officer and Free Mason like Mark, the insurmountable challenge of taming both the Father of Waters and the Big Easy is an obstacle he shall overcome.
