About this listen

Check in for some Southern hospitality in Plantation Shudders, the Cajun Country series debut from Ellen Byron.

It's the end of the summer and prodigal daughter Maggie Crozat has returned home to her family's plantation-turned-bed-and-breakfast in Louisiana. The Crozats have an inn full of guests for the local food festival: elderly honeymooners, the Cajun Cuties, a mysterious stranger from Texas, a couple of hipster lovebirds, and a trio of Georgia frat boys. But when the elderly couple keels over dead within minutes of each other - one from very unnatural causes - Maggie and her family suddenly become suspects in a murder.

With the help of Bo Durand, the town's handsome new detective, Maggie must investigate to clear her name while holding the family business together at the same time. And the deeper she digs, the more she wonders: Are all of the guests really there for a vacation, or do they have ulterior motives? Decades-old secrets and stunning revelations abound in Ellen Byron's charming cozy debut, Plantation Shudders.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Really disappointed in the narration, the attempt at an Australian accent was awful and really off putting. Good story though I enjoyed it.

I loved the story but the Australian accent was pretty bad. I'm an Aussie and it made listening cringie

The fat shaming ran throughout this story, and it was very telling that the author described two unlikeable characters as obese or overweight.
And the narrator’s Australian accent was so bad that I didn’t know if should have laughed or cringed.

Could have done without the fat shaming
