The Lafitte Case: A Historical Mystery
(An elderly attorney tells his grandson about a case which...)
An elderly attorney tells his grandson about a case which has piqued his interest since 1928 when he read that John Paul Jones and Napoleon were buried together in the Louisiana Bayous. For decades, he has presented his "case" before an historical society, which meets once a year, trying to convince them of his findings. It is not until 1993 that he solves the riddle of the final resting places of three of history's greatest heroes. He leaves it to his grandson to present the findings at the next meeting, as he will die before it is convened.
