Publisher's summary
Time is not on Faye Longchamp’s side. She and her husband Joe are working near the mouth of the Mississippi, researching archaeological sites soon to be swamped by oil. The Deepwater Horizon disaster has morphed her run-of-the-mill contract job into a task that might swamp her fledgling company. It isn’t helping that an injured babysitter has left Faye to work with a toddler underfoot.
An adolescent girl is drawn to Faye, perhaps because she idolizes the confident archaeologist. Young Amande is bright and curious, but a poverty-stricken life on a houseboat with an eccentric grandmother doesn’t seem like a good way for Amande to get the education she deserves. Then when the girl’s grandmother and her no-account uncle are murdered, her prospects worsen. With only two known relatives, neither of whom is much more respectable than the dead uncle, Amande seems destined for neglect or worse.
Soon, Faye and Joe find themselves among people fighting hard for Amande’s pathetic inheritance: a raggedy houseboat, a few shares of stock, and a hurricane-battered island that’s not even habitable. Pirate-era silver coins are found and disappear. Shadowing it all is the fact that the murderer is still on the loose. But why should Faye be surprised by such shady events, here in these watery lands settled by the greatest pirates of them all? And the oil slick looms, because this country is still being plundered, after all these years.

Story
Faye Longchamp has lost nearly everything, except for her quick mind and a grim determination to keep her ancestral home, Joyeuse, a moldering plantation. When the property taxes rise beyond her means, Faye sets out to save Joyeuse by digging for artifacts on her property and the surrounding national wildlife refuge and selling them on the black market. A tiny bit of that dead glory would pay a year’s taxes, and a big, valuable chunk of the past would save her home forever. But instead of potsherds and arrowheads, she uncovers a woman’s shattered skull, a Jackie Kennedy-style earring nestled against its cheek bone.

Another great mystery
This is a bit different from the other books, but, still very good. The characters are very interesting and the plot well thought out. Joe and Faye are great as parents. This series gets better and better. I look forward to the next book.

Thoroughly enjoyable novel
I loved this mystery just as I loved the preceeding novels about Fay Longchamp and her family.
The narrator's voice is very pleasing.

Mary Anna Eveans needs to write more!
Would you consider the audio edition of Plunder to be better than the print version?
Hard to say, but I have more time to listen--housework, driving, boring meetings, walking--so I'm more likely to listen than to read.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Plunder?
The setup of the mystery is always the best. Her words make a picture of the place and the people and the culture. I love the Gulf coast and an addicted to Mary Anna Evan's characters and writing style. I sit and wait for her next novel to come out.
What about Cassandra Campbell’s performance did you like?
The tibre of her voice is perfect for Faye-the main character and she is an outstanding actor using her voice to be the other characters as well as the narrators.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, but it wasn't possible.
Any additional comments?
I'm so glad that Mary Anna Evans decided to put her books on audio. I enjoy them either way, but I get to them quicker this way. Keep up the excellent work Ms. Evans and Audible!

Sometimes, it gets a bit cheesy, but the characters are always interesting, and the plot entertaining. It's clean reading/listening, so it's great for a younger audience.

Pronunciations
I love this writer and the narrator BUT...When you have a story set in any area that has multicultural names and locations, learn how to pronounce them. When a local listens to it, it’s ruins the story. For example, when the detective is called Benoit, correctly pronounced Ben Wah, not Ben Noyt is read, along with other names and places(Biloxi, please! ) it hurts the ears.
