The Legend of the Swamp Witch

By: Lori Beasley Bradley

Narrated by: S. Lewis

Angelique Clairvoux lives in St. Martinsville, Louisiana, free of the slavery in other parts of the South. Living together with her grandmother, she practices voodoo and makes her living telling fortunes and selling charms and remedies.

When the slave catchers arrive, Angelique is captured and assaulted, but manages to escape to the wilds of the bayou with her meager belongings, only to be never heard from again. Soon after, several men in the area enter the bayou in search of Angelique's treasure...unaware of the danger for those who hold evil in their hearts against women.

Years later, Raquel Clairvoux - distant relative of Angelique - begins to research Angelique's incident. But can she unravel the Legend of the Swamp Witch?

Mystical combined with Historical equals AMAZING!

Very rarely are bad seeds created in the world. It's my belief that life and the journey that one takes along the way can explain a pattern of decisions and interests our lives turn out to be.... This is a story of Angelique Clairvoux and the curse she placed, and how she embraced the the powerless.

At first it became a little hard for me to understand which era I was in and who was recounting the story during which era, but once I figured it out, I couldn't put the story down. This book was all entertainment, and I wish there was more.
