[close] The protagonist, Charlie has lost her 5 year old son suddenly to a brain aneurism and shortly thereafter finds her magazine writing job is in jeopardy. Not one to wait for the axe to fall, Charlie takes a " true- crime" writing assignment offered by a former boss. The job lands her in the Louisiana bayou where she is plagued by visions of a little boy asking for her help. Charlie has seemingly inherited her Grandmothers' second sight. The Gates of Evangeline is well plotted and the Southern Gothic setting is nicely done.

Recommended for those who like a little psychic phenomena with their mysteries.
