Murder By The Bayou by Jim Riley

Lucky Stryker's decision to skip school to go fishing takes a deadly turn when he and two friends witness the body of Louisiana's wealthiest man being dumped into the bayou.

With millions at stake, the man's wife—significantly younger than her children—has plenty of motives. The kids, with secret lives of their own, have ample reasons to benefit from Caleb Glover's death.

This Louisiana murder mystery unravels a perilous web of deceit and greed in a culture known for its crawfish and jambalaya.
