Blood on the Bayou cover
Synopsis:
First came a terrorist attack. 

Then the mutations—and Fey who had lived in harmony with humans turned deadly. 

Now most people hide behind iron gates. But those who are immune—and those with enough courage—can venture out into the Louisiana Delta . . . and a nightmare world of magic. NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED's  Annabelle Lee, a Fairy Containment and Control agent with immunity to fairy venom, is once again called upon to help solve a murder deep in the bayou. But this one’s off the books. 

Her ex-lover, Hitch, needs her help searching for a secret chemical weapons lab and an FBI mole providing it with human lab rats.Helping Hitch means certain interpersonal disaster with her estranged boyfriend, but Annabelle knows what it feels like to be a lab rat. Her new fairy-attack-induced paranormal abilities seem to have few negative side effects, but would that change if she stopped injecting herself with the mystery drug delivered to her by the even more mysterious—not to mention ridiculously attractive—Tucker? A man who can turn invisible at will, and who makes no bones about how dead she’ll be if she reveals his secrets?As the murder investigation progresses, Annabelle quickly learns Tucker isn’t the only one with secrets, and that the only things that cut deeper than a friend’s deception are the lies we tell ourselves

Review:  Hmmm...  fairy/terrorist book set in DONALDSVILLE, LA... Now ya KNOW you're gonna want to read this one if you're from Louisiana or the South! I wasn't too sure on the book at first, as it seemed like without reading the first book that you were sorta plopped down into the story already unfolding, but then the author catches you up, and grabs your imagination. Those aren't mosquitoes but blood sucking fairies out there in the woods? OK, if you've been through a BAD Louisiana summer, you can go along with that! LOL


Once you get the scoop, the books seems to race on through. Annabelle is the definition of a 'tough cookie'! Her rescued cat eats her bra straps, and she has a Harley in her kitchen. So you know she has the toughness to fight anything that comes her way! The author gets all the nuances right about living in Louisiana, drilling for oil, conspiracy theories and small town life. 


If you like supernatural mysteries, you're gonna love this one!
