**Book Blurb:**
In the bayous of Pointe DeLeaux, Louisiana, the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb. For Alphonse Bordeaux, childhood meant navigating murky canals, frogging at midnight, and longing to escape the suffocating parish and make a name for himself. His mother’s store was a cornerstone of the town, but he wanted more than a quiet, country life.
Now a state detective, Alphonse is thrust back into the heart of the Pointe when his mother passes away. Soon after, he stumbles into a missing persons case that has been haunting the town. As a monster prowls the swamps, fueled by the chilling conviction that he’s destined to create the perfect family promised by God, Alphonse races against time to hunt down this hidden predator.
In a town with a bleak future, Al must confront the shadows of Pointe DeLeaux. With memories dredged up from the muddy waters of his past, and a case that’s stagnating at every turn, can he catch the elusive killer before another victim surfaces, or will he be pulled under as well?
