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.

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)

Next book in the series. Fay rather miraculously does some of the archaeology she’s paid to do, Joe gets an opinion and New Orleans comes out sounding like a snobbish hell hole. Great fun.
