The Etienne Arceneaux Mystery Series
Gritty. Suspenseful.
Etienne “Tee” Arceneaux knows the Louisiana marsh like the lines in his weathered palm. As a Wildlife & Fisheries agent, he was trained to track hunters and shrimpers, not traffickers and killers. But when the disappearance of a childhood friend leads to a body in the bayou, Tee stumbles into a violent undercurrent of corruption, smuggling, and exploitation running through the bayou like a dark tide.
What begins with a missing boater unravels into a deadly network that reaches from offshore oil platforms to the French Quarter, from backwater bait shops to the highest levels of law enforcement. Alongside unlikely allies, including a disgraced DEA agent, Tee must walk a tightrope between justice and survival, exposing the truth in a place where silence is a way of life and betrayal cuts deep.
Steeped in Cajun culture and the slow burn of Southern noir, the Etienne Arceneaux Mystery Series is a gripping ride through the swamps and shadows of modern-day Louisiana. Loyalty is tested, justice is personal, and the water always remembers.
