Ask Cordelia Black why she did it. The answer will always be- He had it coming. Cordelia Black loves exactly three things- Her chosen family, her hairdresser (worth every penny plus tip), and killing bad men.

By night, she culls South Louisiana of unscrupulous men-monsters who think they've evaded justice, until they meet her.
