Book Detail

Detective Elijah Carter thought he had seen it all, but nothing could prepare him for the horrors lurking in the heart of Louisiana’s bayous. When a series of grisly murders shakes the quiet town of St. John’s Parish, Carter is called in to investigate. What seems like a routine case soon spirals into a tangled mess of family secrets, supernatural forces, and long-buried truths.

The locals whisper of an old curse—a legend that has plagued the area for centuries. As Carter digs deeper, he realizes that the murders are not random but tied to something much older. A shadowy figure haunts the bayou, and no one is safe from its reach. But the more Carter uncovers, the more he begins to question his own sanity, as strange occurrences begin to follow him home.

In a race against time, Carter must face the darkness of the bayou, where the line between the living and the dead is thinner than he ever imagined. Will he solve the case before the curse claims him as its next victim, or will he become just another lost soul in the swamp?
