Rhiannon LeBeau thought she left her past behind when her mother abandoned her and her younger brother, Rhett, after their father committed suicide fifteen years ago. But when her mother unexpectantly dies she and her brother must go back for the funeral in the haunted Louisiana Bayou. Like fifteen years ago strange things begin happening and they need to discover the secrets of their family to save their lives.

“A Dark Roux” by Blaine Daigle was absolutely perfect. I loved the story from beginning to end. The trauma was so intense and dark. Both the characters, Rhiannon and Rhett, are easy to identify with even though their personalities were so different. I felt the same feelings as Rhiannon about her parents and went through the emotional rollercoaster alongside her to understand what actually occurred to her as a child. I did not see the end coming at all and was a puddle of tears. I gave it 5 out of 5 stars and would love to read more books by Blaine Daigle.
