About this listen

In New Orleans, the intersection between the past and the present is all too often deadly. Archaeologist Faye Longchamp and her excavating team are horrified when a corpse surfaces that's far too new to be an archaeological find. Faye and her fiancé, Joe Wolf Mantooth, are drawn into the investigation by a detective who believes their professional expertise is critical to the case. They quickly learn that trouble swirled around the victim, Shelly Broussard, like winds around the still, quiet eye of a hurricane. Is Shelly's heroic rescue work in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina the key to her death? Or does the sheaf of photos in her work files hold the answer?©2009 Mary Anna Evans (P)2009 Blackstone Audio, Inc. Detective Fiction Mystery Women Sleuths Women's Fiction Suspense New Orleans

Critic reviews

"Evans's fifth is an exciting brew of mystery and romance with a touch of New Orleans charm." ( Kirkus Reviews)
"Engaging....Passages from a book about the Katrina disaster by a local author and extracts from the memoirs of a 19th-century military engineer provide insights and historical perspective. Faye's landlady, a part-time voodoo-mambo or priestess, adds spice." - ( Publishers Weekly)
Engaging Storyline • Intriguing Historical Elements • Compelling Character Development • Captivating Southern Settings

What I love most about these books is how each one takes us to a different area of Southern USA. The history is entwined with the story happening in the 22st Century. I don’t think anyone in the world missed hearing about the devastation of Hurricane Katrina and this book really brought home the horror. Of course Faye and Joe continue their story and Faye learns more about her heritage. I am addicted to this series

I’ve been doing a “marathon of listening” with Mary Anna Evens’ series, Faye Longchamp. The character development & storytelling is fantastic. Cassandra Campbell has a wonderful ability to weave the story along with her interpretation of each character. Love, love, love it all!

Can’t put this series down!

I have become hook on Fay's and Joe's adventures. The reader voice is pleasant and smooth. The mix races of all the characters even the ones that come and go is what building America was. wanting more dealing with the native dig sites.
