Laissez les bons temps rouler - Until somebody gets killed of course.
Murder along the bayous of south Louisiana's Cajun Country doesn't go unpunished. Grab a gator by the tail and follow this fast-paced mystery set in a casual Creole parish. Catch each episode of A Cajun Murder Mystery Series.

South Louisiana Chief of Police Louis Scott blends over 25 years of policing experiences with an action packed writing style seasoned by the Mardi Gras, hurricanes, humidity and crawfish étouffée. Don't let the easy Creole smile fool you. The Chief spent most of his highly decorated career buying dope, banging down doors, and busting bad guys.

Each short story crime thriller takes you a leap deeper into the investigation, and the murky marsh backwaters. Join Author Louis Scott as he takes you behind the badge and along the bayous of south Louisiana. Live life along the Thin Blue Line and feel the rush of raw cop culture. Lock and Load - you with me?

Holy cliffhanger, Batman!

This work couldn't be read without a program - "Program, Program. Can't tell a character from a chapter heading without a Program!" Said Program missing a number of pages from the back; continued in Program Two. I'll leave the work in its free ebook form until I'm ready to afford Book Two.

If it wasn't the worst mystery book that I had ever read, it wasn't from lack of trying.

I liked this book but found it a little confusing sometimes, but it was well written and I really liked the ending.

I have to be honest, I was a little thrown by the colloquialisms in the beginning (and a few editing oversights) but once you get your head around it, it is a thrilling read. This episodic approach to a much bigger story is almost television-like with the story told from different characters' PoV.
The ending took me by surprise and I hope you will be kept at the egde of your seat to the very end too.
I will definitely read the rest of this series of episodes.

Nice Twist

It reminded me of the old hard boiled, dime store detective stories I liked as a kid, but the Cajun flavor was unmistakable. Though it took me a bit, I figured out the whodunit, but did not foresee the ending. Nice twist.

The only reason I dropped a star is a little editing that was missed that left a few sentences confusing. They broke the flow a little.
