Book Description
Adrienne Hargrove has always been aware that humans are fragile creatures walking an egg-shell thin line between innocence and deviance. Her own life is a chain of guilt from poor choices she’s made. But as a private investigator in the Deep South, she thought she had seen it all. That was before she was hired by Catriona Kirby, wife of Galen Kirby, a doctor in a small Louisiana town. Adrienne knew she was looking into the possibility the doctor was involved in a drug scam with the sheriff. She even knew there was a possibility the doctor was involved in the murder of an ex-girlfriend. What she never imagined was that Dr. Galen Kirby was a serial killer and deeply involved in a baby black market scheme. And in their wildest nightmares neither Adrienne nor Catriona could have imagined that he was producing his own babies to sell.

Abigail has been found dead in New Orleans, and Matilda is still missing. With warnings of Hurricane Katrina in every weather report, Adrienne and Mike head to New Orleans, where Voodoo Priestess Madam Helene Dupre sends a message that she believes she can help them find Matilda. As Adrienne and Mike do all they can to find the girl, they become aware of another kind of human depravity. Evacuated to the Superdome in New Orleans following the hurricane, they see firsthand the nightmare of poverty, racial discrimination, government failure, and human hopelessness at its very worst. Does Madam Dupre have the power to help, or is she a hoax? Will Mike and Adrienne find Matilda in time, or is it already too late? This case is one that will change them both forever.

American Folklife
Author: Don Yoder
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 0292729073
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
Knowledge of folk custom and folk belief can help to explain ways of thought and behavior in modern America. American Folklife, a unique collection of essays dedicated to the presentation of American tradition, broadens our understanding of the regional differences and ethnic folkways that color American life. Folklife research examines the entire context of everyday life in past and present. It includes every aspect of traditional life, from regional architecture through the full range of material culture into spiritual culture, folk religion, witchcraft, and other forms of folk belief. This collection is especially useful in its application to American society, where countless influences from European, American Indian, and African cultural backgrounds merge. American Folklife relates folklife research to history, anthropology, cultural geography, architectural history, ethnographic film, folk technology, folk belief, and ethnic tensions in American society. It documents the folk-cultural background that is the root of our society.
