Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A missing man, a ruby ring, a halter rope cut clean in two. When Leigh Wells disappears, a year-long drama unfolds for the Leeds family. Where is Leigh? Why did Joe go out so late? Why was Ike kidnapped? It all comes together in this mystery by Emily Porter Blair, who set this story in Aroostook County, Maine, where she lived and raised her family in the early 1900s.This recently discovered manuscript, brown with age, was written in the 1930s. Set just before America's entry into WWI, this story reveals a time and place unfamiliar to the modern reader. Horse and sled carried everyone in the winter, when the deep snow made roads impassible for their few cars. The scarce telephones were party lines, and you answered only your ring. Life was slow, but not always simple. It got complicated for these characters, as they lived with the suspicion of murder and duplicity. An emotional trial brings suspense and a surprise ending.

Download or read book Murder in the Bayou written by Ethan Brown and published by Scribner. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soon to be a Showtime documentary, Murder in the Bayou is a New York Times bestselling chronicle of a high-stakes investigation into the murders of eight women in a troubled Southern parish that is “part murder case, part corruption exposé, and part Louisiana noir” (New York magazine). Between 2005 and 2009, the bodies of eight women were discovered in Jennings, Louisiana, a bayou town of 10,000 in the Jefferson Davis parish. The women came to be known as the Jeff Davis 8, and local law enforcement officials were quick to pursue a serial killer theory, stirring a wave of panic across Jennings’ class-divided neighborhoods. The Jeff Davis 8 had been among society’s most vulnerable—impoverished, abused, and mired with mental illness. They engaged in sex work as a means of survival. And their underworld activity frequently occurred at a decrepit motel called the Boudreaux Inn. As the cases went unsolved, the community began to look inward. Rumors of police corruption and evidence tampering, of collusion between street and shield, cast the serial killer theory into doubt. But what was really going on in the humid rooms of the Boudreaux Inn? Why were crimes going unsolved and police officers being indicted? What had the eight women known? And could anything be done do stop the bloodshed? Mixing muckraking research and immersive journalism over the course of a five-year investigation, Ethan Brown reviewed thousands of pages of previously unseen homicide files to posit what happened during each woman’s final hours delivering a true crime tale that is “mesmerizing” (Rolling Stone) and “explosive” (Huffington Post). “Brown is a man on a mission...he gives the victims more respectful attention than they probably got in real life” (The New York Times). “A must-read for true-crime fans” (Publishers Weekly, starred review), with a new afterword, Murder in the Bayou is the story of an American town buckling under the dark forces of poverty, race, and class division—and a lightning rod for justice for the daughters it lost.
