Plot twists, dark mystery and voodoo magic - Bayou Whispers is the latest thriller from horror writer R.B. Wood and is the story of no-nonsense New Orleans native, Jeannine LaRue. She is the sole survivor of her family after the devastation brought on by Hurricane Katrina. In the aftermath of the storm, she believed she'd been saved, but soon found herself held hostage and sexually exploited, rescued months later by sheriff's deputy Curtis Jones.
Twelve years after Katrina, Jeannine is a new attorney who returns to New Orleans to save her old friend Curtis Jones—now a local thief and trafficker of stolen goods—after he is arrested for the murder of Jeannine's captors, whose bodies have recently been found. But Jeannine discovers more than she bargained for when she uncovers a family history of dark voodoo magic and an unholy alliance with an ancient evil Haitian god.
"I grew up surrounded by strong female role models. Recent personal events have made me understand and truly appreciate the survival story. And what better city to set a survival story in than New Orleans—a city of history and magic that continues its own survivor story to this day? Anyone who loves twists and suspense will get caught up in Bayou Whispers."
