Book excerpt: More than a book, Spirits of the Bayou delivers a renewed appreciation and a poetic presence built upon the past. Each chapter unlocks another door into the ancient houses of worship, or probes the eerie shadows of cemeteries and haunted legends deep inside the bayous. A seeker of knowledge on an unending quest to capture the beauty of Louisiana's sacred places, Deborah Burst has amassed a most unique portrait of artistic landscapes. It's a compelling gallery, a rarity in the literary world with both the magic of her words and the emotional flavor of her photographs. For the connoisseur, the book deserves a place on the coffee table; for the adventurer, it belongs neatly tucked in a backpack. It's a must-read for locals and a rare treat for those beyond the state's borders. With this second book in Burst's Sacred Places series, follow a trail of discovery, wonder, and intrigue from New Orleans to the ragged coast of Cajun country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New Orleans girl married to the most coveted aristocrat of Grande Terre, Ellie is the envy of many in that bayou town. She manages her husband's country mansion with generous grace, raises their two beautiful children, leads the church choir and volunteers as the homeless shelter's babysitter and fundraiser. The silent loneliness of a neglected wife, doubts about her husband's love, and nocturnal visits from a dream lover are Ellie's worst problems-until death comes stalking with the stuff of nightmares. Mojo. Evil. Someone using black magic to send murderous attacks against Ellie from mundane sources-snakes, wasps, the occasional spider. Attacks that escalate daily with even deadlier vermin. Initially oblivious to the enemy, Ellie reluctantly finds herself engaged in the fight of her life against the earthly minions of an evil bokor. Balancing the odds in this lethal contest are Kat, Ellie's feisty best friend; Liam, the ghost of a former husband; and Justine, a Creole traiteuse who practices the good gris gris. Ellie and her friends must battle the forces of evil to protect her family and their way of life.

The kidnapper does not play favorites. PRAYIn this prequel to Spirits Among Us, nineteen year-old Jon-Luc Boudreaux is trying to manage his gift. He's a psychic medium. In other words, he sees the dead. They appear to him as living, breathing people. At times it's hard to know the difference. One night he is visited by the ghost of a young girl named Charlotte. Her message is simple: Save the children. THAT EVILJon-Luc has no idea how to do that. He's not a cop. He knows nothing about finding missing kids. He tries to ignore her, but Charlotte won't leave him alone until he promises to help. Since her visits started, he's had some very disturbing visions. When the signs begin to point toward Voodoo, he has no choice but to find an expert. DOES NOTCelestine Glapion is a Voodoo Priestess and a descendant of the great Voodoo Queen Marie Laveau. The minute Jon-Luc walks into her family's shop, she remembers him, but he has no memory of her. So when Mama Arelia tells her she must help with this crisis, she's reluctant to work side-by-side with Jon-Luc. But she'll do anything for the sake of those innocent lives. FIND YOUTheir journey takes them to the underbelly of New Orleans where dark magic lives. Jon-Luc escapes death not once, but twice, and still he pushes on. Knowing time is running out, the kidnapper speeds up the schedule. Can Jon-Luc and Celestine rescue them in time?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Miranda Barnes first sees the sleepy town of St. Yvette, Louisiana, with its moss-draped trees, above-ground cemeteries, and her grandfather’s creepy historic home, she realizes that life as she knew it is officially over. Almost immediately, there seems to be something cloying at her. Something lonely and sad and . . . very pressing. Even at school and in the group project she’s been thrown into, she can’t escape it. Whispers when she’s alone, shadows when no one is there to make them, and a distant pleading voice that wakes her from sleep. The other members in Miranda’s group project, especially handsome Etienne, can see that Miranda is in distress. She is beginning to understand that, like her grandfather before her, she has a special gift of communicating with spirits who still walk the town of St. Yvette. And no matter where she turns, Miranda feels bound by their whispered pleas for help . . . unless she can somehow find a way to bring them peace.

They'll need to untangle the web of secrets and figure out who to trust before they risk everything, including their own lives"--Page 4 of cover.

Book excerpt: Owning a haunted bed and breakfast is great for Holly Davis's business. But calming the ghosts of her own past could be deadly . . . To Louisiana locals, the prime sliver of land that butts up to St. Agnes Bayou has become just another tourist trap. Not so for Holly Davis. Her ancestors are still buried on the land and sinking ever deeper into the swamp with each passing hurricane season. Now that old man Dubois's go-to shack for live crawfish is on the market, Holly's ready to hock everything to buy it. As the owner of a haunted B&B, Holly knows for a fact that the spirits won't be settled until she does. But before Holly can close the deal, Dubois's body disappears into the swamp after a deadly boating accident. Holly and her boyfriend Jack McCann have good reason to suspect Jarvis, one of the rightful heirs to the property. With Dubois's body missing, and a murderer working the bayou, the cemetery and all its mossy ghosts are in limbo. And until Holly finds the killer, not a soul--including hers--is going to rest in peace.

Book excerpt: Old secrets are rising up to haunt the inhabitants of Louisiana's small, rustic St. Germaine Parish, where no one is quite who they seem, and restless spirits are rumored to roam the woods and the antebellum mansion of the town's richest family, the St. Michels. Successful New York City artist Mignon Thibeaux doesn't believe in ghosts, but even she can't resist the rumors that the St. Michel mansion may be haunted, especially since its owner, Luc St. Michel, was the same man whom her mother ran off with 25 years ago before disappearing into thin air. Convinced that there was more to her mother's strange departure, Mignon returns to her hometown of LaValle, Louisiana to investigate. Once there, she doesn't know who she can trust - from the handsome, rugged sheriff who seems to have his own agenda, the guarded Louisiana Supreme Court judge who hides behind a wall of lies, and finally to Eleanor St. Michel, Luc's vindictive wife, who is relentless in her pursuit of the supernatural, convinced that the séances she hosts in the dead of night will appease the spirits and put an end to the hauntings. Bayou Moon is a gripping tale of murder, revenge, and voodoo in small town Louisiana that captures all the ambience and charm of the rural South. Someone has a secret that must be kept hidden, and God help the one who tries to uncover it...
