New Orleans has its own breed of werewolves…
I’m so excited to share this new release of the next novella in the Legacy Series. The Convicts was a blast to research and write, especially since I was born in Louisiana. And though I don’t have REAL Cajun blood in me, I adore the unique culture and feel of the state. Much of my love for its history and unique mythology bled through to this continuation of Bart and James Croxen. If you love werewolves, New Orleans, Jean Lafitte, and rougarous, you’re gonna wanna make sure this novella is delivered directly to your kindle on it’s release! Going live on 8-27, I present The Convicts.
[image error]New Orleans – 1815
Bart Croxen never thought he would see his son again, especially not in Louisiana. Andrew Jackson has finally lifted marshal law over the port city after the Battle of New Orleans and everyone is eager to praise and honor the valiant war heroes who defended them against the invading British. Creoles, Acadians, Irish, Germans, Spanish, and plenty of French citizens welcome Baratarian pirates like James and Robert into their social circles, but they are more interested in reuniting with their estranged relative. They come to find out that Bart has made a reputation for himself as a tamer of rougarous, werewolves like himself who had developed a taste for human flesh. On his plantation of sharecroppers – mostly former slaves that Bart has freed himself – he rehabilitates deranged werewolves in secret.
James has arrived just in time to see his father in action, though he still has some reserves about how the plantation and virtual prison is being operated. Although everyone assures him that Bart is generous and selfless to a fault, he is still not convinced. After an escape attempt by a particularly stubborn and dangerous rougarou, some start to think he may be onto something.
