Jolly Roger

By Thomas J. Leveque

Book Overview

Roger Chretien is found drowned in his upstairs study, soaking wet and draped in the Jolly Roger. When his brothers, James, and John return home to Lake Charles Louisiana to bury their brother, they never imagine it will become a life changing moment. Together with John's daughter Jenny, her friend Robert, Roger's friends, Margot Sallier, Diz and Daz and a tenuous relationship with Detective Sergeant Antoine Durel of the Lake Charles Police Department, they will become embroiled in a mystery that will take them on a journey through Southern Louisiana. Murder, treasure, history, legacy, family stories, and food all intertwine in a story that is part mystery and part adventure, taking the reader through Southern Louisiana into the wilds of Bayou Contraband in the midst of a category four hurricane for a final confrontation with destiny and a centuries old legend.

Excellent plot

The setting is in southern Louisiana. The characters are well drawn and likable. It includes much of the culture of the south, especially the southern cooking. I found the story engaging. I hope more people will read it and enjoy it as much as I did
