Description
Kate Patton leaves her job as food editor the day her husband threatens her life while crabbing on Lake Pontchartrain. She flees to Roselea plantation in central Louisiana, a residence for artists and writers, where she plans to write about their special meat pies. At dinner, a writer is poisoned, and Amelia, a descendant of Congo Liz and a French Commandant, who serves the meal, points a finger at the owner’s mentally disabled son, and several other boarders. A plantation worker is the second victim, and the police arrest a painter possessing a syringe with traces of cyanide. Kate solves the crime, discovering the interplay of voodoo and resentment by the People of Color for loss of the Congo Liz’s plantation. Nothing for Free is also available in eBook format from Amazon for $2.99. Published 2008.
