The Crozat family is ready to celebrate Mardi Gras with food, parades and parties when a flood deposits a body behind the family plantation bed and breakfast. The flood postpones many of the parties and also a controversial museum exhibit opening and then the judge of the Miss Pelican pageant is shot. Things in Pelican are spiraling out of control, so amateur sleuth Maggie Crozat steps in. She’s sure if she can identify the body found behind her family B&B, she can make a connection to the judge and hopefully solve the murder in time for the citizens of Pelican to still “let the good times roll”. A sassy Southern mystery with plenty of tasty bayou vittles
