Greetings from Monchac, Louisiana. Home to fifty-seven souls and the world's only floating stationery store! When Mila Breaux's LA dreams go up in smoke, she'll move her cozy lettering shop down to bayou country, and pile her pens and paper onto her late uncle's houseboat.

A Renaissance fair in rural Louisiana is not the kind of place you'd expect to encounter any real danger. All the dragons, jousting, sword fighting, and public executions are only make believe, right?

A dead body is not something you want to find in the walk-in freezer of a fancy trattoria!

The Mardi Gras season has come to South Louisiana, and it should have been a happy one. But when Rex, King of Carnival collapses from his parade float, a dark cloud forms over the Fat Tuesday festivities. What's even weirder is that he has passed a strange coin to Mila Breaux in his final moments.

When Mila and Critter Girl find a dead man handcuffed to a stump, deep in Chapitoulas Swamp, they'll need to act wisely to determine who their real friends are. Even though it is Christmas on the bayou, not everyone is in the festive mood this year.

When an old woman dies onboard the lettering shop with a Cajun curse on her lips, the bad luck really starts to rain on Mila Breaux. She's not sure she believes in the supernatural, but the more strange events take place, the more it seems to believe in her!
