Publisher's Summary

Check in for some Southern hospitality in Plantation Shudders, the Cajun Country series debut from Ellen Byron.

It's the end of the summer and prodigal daughter Maggie Crozat has returned home to her family's plantation-turned-bed-and-breakfast in Louisiana. The Crozats have an inn full of guests for the local food festival: elderly honeymooners, the Cajun Cuties, a mysterious stranger from Texas, a couple of hipster lovebirds, and a trio of Georgia frat boys. But when the elderly couple keels over dead within minutes of each other - one from very unnatural causes - Maggie and her family suddenly become suspects in a murder.

With the help of Bo Durand, the town's handsome new detective, Maggie must investigate to clear her name while holding the family business together at the same time. And the deeper she digs, the more she wonders: Are all of the guests really there for a vacation, or do they have ulterior motives? Decades-old secrets and stunning revelations abound in Ellen Byron's charming cozy debut, Plantation Shudders.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Fun cozy

After finishing a bunch of Christmas cosies I was looking for something a little warmer and this suited the bill. Some of the accents are a little jarring but that is a nit pick it was very enjoyable.

Not sure what the author was thinking!

Maggie acts like a teenager and is always being chastised by her parents and having to apologize for her behaviour. But when she made fun of an autistic child I had to stop listening. Not sure what the author was thinking.

Not to bad

This was a good start to a new series, its nice. I like the charaters, they are easy to root for. The narration is good as well this was the first time I listened to this author and narrator so I went in completely blind and came out a winner looking to move on to the next book in the series.
