Publisher Description:

S. H. Baker vividly depicts the beauty and liveliness of the Louisiana Bayou following WWI in her mystery series featuring Cajun lawman Dassas Cormier.

Dassas Cormier, a dashing young Frenchman in southwest Louisiana, is torn between his Acadian heritage and the excitement of the Roaring Twenties. He returns home after a tragic end to his police career to find two murders have taken place in Marshall's Bayou-a town where nothing ever happens. And the woman of his dreams seems to be involved in at least one of the crimes.

Contributor Bio(s): Baker, S. H.: -

S. H. Baker, who also writes under the pseudonyms Lydia Parks and Sarah Storme, grew up in New Orleans, the city of music, fun, and fantastic food. After running off to Alaska to enjoy a taste of the Wild West pipeline days, she returned to the lower forty-eight and earned a master's degree in engineering from the University of Texas at Austin. As a civil engineer, Baker has lived all over the United States, from Mississippi to Alaska. While moving around, she stumbled on the joy of her life: writing.

Full Cast, A.: - Dylan Thomas was born in Swansea, Wales on 27 October 1914. In 1934 his first book of poetry, Eighteen Poems appeared, followed by Twenty-five Poems in 1936, Deaths and Entrances in 1946 and in 1952 his final volume, Collected Poems. He also published many short stories, wrote filmscripts, broadcast stories and talks, did a series of lecture tours in the United States and wrote Under Milkwood, the radio play.

During his fourth lecture tour of the United States in 1953, a few days after his 39th birthday, he collapsed in his New York hotel and died on November 9th at St. Vincent's Hospital. His body was sent back to Laugharne, Wales, where his grave is marked by a simple wooden cross.

In June 1994, his wife, Caitlin Thomas, died in Italy, where she had spent most of the years of her life after the death of Dylan Thomas. Her body is buried next to his.
