Birth of the Gator
The Disturbing History Saga - Inspired by actual events
Secrets can kill . . .
In the heart of New Orleans, the Creole clairvoyant Beulah Laveau makes a harrowing decision. A decision of great sacrifice: entrusting her only child to a couple who swear to keep his lineage a secret. Thus, the gifted boy walks into a life he wasn’t meant for and it places him in a dire situation that requires the birth of unique survival skills—colder blood, thicker skin, and a killer instinct.
Beulah is a mom on a mission to right wrongs and protect her son. Standing in her way is a man obsessed with revenge and a government on a quest for global domination. A quiet legion of CIA agents lurks in the shadows as the boy grows to become the Gator, killer for hire. As the number of people who learn the Gator’s secret increases . . . so does the body count.
Secrets, promises, and conflicting loyalties threaten to incite consequences beyond everyone’s control.
A son, a mother, a government. All willing to fight . . . all willing to sacrifice.
Birth of the Gator is the pulse-pounding prequel to the award-winning novels that comprise The Gator Leaves Nothing Behind. Follow Kami Boley into the mid-twentieth century as she spins an intricate web of our history and her imagination in The Disturbing History Saga, a thrilling illumination of government secrets, underworld violence, and the mysteries of the human heart.

I'm so excited book #3 has been released and we can finally learn why Gator is the way he is! Kami has a gift for writing, and words in general, and this book exceeded my expectations, especially with all of the History thrown in!! I was enthralled from the beginning, and even when it was over, I was googling to dig deeper into the stories this book provided. ❤

The Birth of the Gator is a perfect prequel to the compelling Part I and Part II of the Disturbing History Saga. Especially, those of us who craved more from this brilliant author. Yet, the book stands on its own. It has genuine characters and a plot that keeps you reading well past your bedtime. The synopsis alone is a tantalizing read. I highly recommend this book for history lovers and those who love intrigue.
