As Nella entered her cousin's house on the Louisiana bayou she knew something was wrong. With 5 children in the house under the age of 8 there should be noises of some kind but the house was in total silence. Something drew her attention to the cramped room beneath the stairs. The door was colsed, but she'd heard a sound...a whisper. Inside the door crouched one of the little girls holding a doll, but then the doll moved. It was a newborn baby and both the baby and the little girl were covered in blood! 30 years later, Detective Evangeline Theroux is involved in investigating an unusual death of a prominent lawyer found in a deserted storm damaged home in New Orleans. The body is covered in snake bites. Both cases come together in a gripping novel that is a true page turner.
