Blood at the Bayou

an Express Investigations Mystery - Book 8

It’s Mardi Gras season and someone is killing young women at the Château Bayou.

Bent on destroying the Bayou and Ruby Rae Frances, the murderer snatches victims at will and reveals their corpses in macabre scenes from Ruby’s past – a history she thought dead and buried.

With the killer on the loose, no one in Ruby’s life is safe. In what should be the busiest time of the year, Bayou business takes a nosedive and everything Ruby holds dear is disappearing before her eyes—including her relationship with Beau.

Express Investigations is on the case—whether the LAPD detectives like it or not—and with Várlumo and Trix out of town, it’s up to the rest of the team to catch the killer before Ruby’s world crumbles.

Blood at the Bayou is a fast-paced, tightly woven 1940s murder mystery delving into the evils of obsession and the meaning of family.

Belief doesn’t equal truth.
