Description of Murder in the Bayou: Who Killed the Women Known as the Jeff Davis 8?
Review 'A deeply reported, and disturbing, true crime story that is as puzzling as it is intriguing. Ethan Brown's Murder in the Bayou raises as many questions as it answers, but never ceases to enrage. This is a book about power: those who wield it, and those who, tragically, fall victim to it.'--Janet Reitman, contributing editor at Rolling Stone and author of the New York Times Notable Book Inside Scientology'By way of Jefferson Davis Parish, Louisiana, Ethan Brown casts light on an America that many people would prefer to believe is not there. Murder in the Bayou reveals a complicated web of violence, poverty, drugs, and corruption--it's a brave feat of reporting.'--Zachary Lazar, author of Evening's Empire: The Story of My Father's Murder 'Ethan Brown wades into the fetid political swamps of south Louisiana and emerges with a sordid yarn of sex, drugs and death. With a depraved and threatening cast of characters, Brown delivers a dogged, courageous inquiry into the murders of eight women. Even those accustomed to institutional corruption in the Pelican State will be shocked by this tale.'--Doug J. Swanson, author of Blood Aces: The Wild Ride of Benny Binion, the Texas Gangster Who Created Vegas Poker'Brown's writing is clear and approachable, and his research is meticulous...readers will be shaken by the unpleasant implications of a narrative bearing similarities to the first season of True Detective. Compulsively readable true crime provoking questions about policing, poverty, and the ritualized brutality of the rural South.'--Kirkus Reviews'Investigating what appeared to be a string of unsolved sex-murders that began in 2005, journalist Ethan Brown eventually uncovered a snakepit of small-town corruption in the bayou parish of Jefferson Davis, Louisiana. With its large cast of lost, doomed, and sinister characters, its dense atmosphere of menace and dread, and, at its center, a dogged reporter pursuing a mystery with the fearlessness of a pulp-fiction private eye, Brown's Murder in the Bayou is a stunning work of real-life Southern noir.'--Harold Schechter, author of The Serial Killer Files'Far truer than True Detective . . . part murder case, part corruption expose, and part Louisiana noir.'--Boris Kachka, NYMag.com'The depths of the corruption detailed in the book by Brown...will make your head spin for days after you finish reading it.'--Uproxx'[A] page-turning account...filled with vivid characters...startling and haunting.'--Gambit Weekly'Doggedly researched and sensitively observed.'--Gothamist'A gripping narrative that will revive curiosity about eight unsolved murders...Brown's spare but effective prose and measured analysis of the evidence makes this a must-read for true-crime fans.'--Publishers Weekly STARRED review Read more About the Author Ethan Brown is an investigative journalist, private investigator, and author of four previous books, Murder in the Bayou,�Queens Reigns Supreme, Snitch,�and�Shake the Devil Off, which was named one of the Best Books of 2009 by�The Washington Post.
