The Gator Leaves Nothing Behind - Part II
The Disturbing History Saga - Inspired by actual events
"Choose de right one an' you will know peace and success . . .
Choose de wrong one an' you will suffer in bondage many a year."
A chance meeting set the spinning threads of destiny in motion in the bayou-side community of Houma, Louisiana, where a young woman’s quiet struggle builds to horrific heights. Mary Poche finds herself facing a diabolical threat, a nemesis she never expected: her husband.
Back in September of 1958, Mary was delivered a fate-filled message about dangerous choices and two men who would enter her life. The mysterious details of that Creole woman’s warning fade fast from Mary's memory as the busy school days go by, yet her future continues to align, inescapable.
Mary has a brilliant mind with a clear road to her educational ambitions, but life is about to throw her into a maze of relationships, hormones, desires, and dangers she never saw coming. She finds herself lured, caught amidst the attention of a boy and a man. One has a questionable future and one has a mysterious past; both are a possible threat to her safety.
She's afraid of losing her head and her heart to love . . . but what if the stakes are much higher?
Kami Boley's newest installment of The Disturbing History Saga, The Gator Leaves Nothing Behind, Part II, is a dark and twisting, fictional yet alarmingly real exploration of relationships, crime, and life near the waterways of mid-twentieth-century Louisiana.

Wonderful, well written story!
Brilliantly written! This novel is heart-wrenchingly good, an emotional roller coaster from the first page to the last. I am deeply hooked on these well-crafted characters and this enthralling story stuffed with real historical figures and references, it felt like I was there in 1960's Louisiana. I don't want to give anything away, but keep some tissues nearby. I loooove this book!

This is such an intense series! While book 1 was spent building up the characters, book 2 jumps right into the action and catapults you into the story. There were a few times that I had to set this book down and walk away when the domestic violence was brought up, but other than that I pushed through rather quickly.

I really enjoyed this book! You can tell that so much time and care was put into crafting the characters, scenes, and plot. Lively, detailed, intelligent, and universally understandable. The story is compelling, and I cared about the characters. Also, I love history, and the morsels of historical references did not disappoint. Just amazing. I can't wait to get more to read.

Deeper into the Saga
Picking up where book one left off, the story takes a major turn to the dark side. Kami draws you into the time, characters and plot as it thickens. What will book three bring to the table? Can't wait to find out!
