About this listen

Let the good times roll?

It’s Mardi Gras time, and Fortune is looking forward to seeing the spectacle firsthand, but when a visitor to Sinful is murdered during the celebration there, Fortune, Ida Belle, and Gertie can’t help but wonder what happened. As they start looking into the woman and the family in Sinful she came to visit, their investigation sends them to New Orleans, right at the height of the Mardi Gras celebration. But instead of relaxing a little and enjoying the festivities, Fortune can’t shake the feeling that she’s being watched.

When she catches sight of her father in the Mardi Gras crowd, she knows why.

Unfortunately, her father’s presence in Louisiana has brought with it a host of terrorists, all with only one thing in mind - locate and terminate Dwight Redding. Can Fortune, Ida Belle, and Gertie manage to evade the killers long enough to figure out why Dwight has returned from the dead? And will knowing the answer make things worse or better?

What can I say? I love this series. However I found the return of Fortune’s father a little anticlimactic. I thought his appearance would be the central storyline, but instead it was relegated to a mostly side plot. However, it did lead to some great action scenes for Swamp Team 3 . But I was hoping that Gertie and Ida Belle would get a go at him 😉

A great way to pass a few hours.

Not as good as the other books in the series, but still a light and fluffy read to escape reality for a few hours.

Good but very predictable
