Free (nook/Kindle) Fever Moon by Carolyn Haines [Historical Southern Gothic Suspense]

Fever Moon by Carolyn Haines is a WWII-set historical murder mystery turned suspense thriller of the type IIRC tends to get called "southern gothic", free courtesy of publisher Adams Media's Tyrus imprint.

Currently free @ B&N and Amazon UK, likely to drop in the main store.

Description
With the acclaimed novel Penumbra, Carolyn Haines branched out from the cozy Southern mysteries that made her name and moved into more ominous, more literary territory. She continues that exploration of the darker side of the South with Fever Moon.

Set in New Iberia, Louisiana, during World War II, Fever Moon begins when Deputy Raymond Thibodeaux discovers Adele Hebert covered in blood and hovering over the brutally eviscerated body of Henri Bastion, a wealthy plantation owner. In the aftermath of the murder, Adele claims to be the loup-garou, a legendary Cajun shape-shifter that traditionally takes the shape of a wolf, and panic ensues in this small town that already has been living under the pressures of wartime rationing and poverty. Raymond is determined to restore order, but to do so he’ll have to prove that Adele isn’t a murderer or a monster.

In this dark and swirling literary thriller, Carolyn Haines tells the story of a town that is caught up in the frenzy of a murder and a killer who feeds its terror to suit his own purposes.

Her Bones books (the Southern cozies referred to in the description) are, IMO, hysterically funny. The books do feature a ghost, but this ghost pre-dates all the current vampire-this and werewolf-that paranormal nonsense, and is well done - just a nice cute punctuation mark in the stories.

I'm not sure how Southern cozy will translate into Southern gothic, but now I'll get to find out for free. Thanks, AT Drake!

I am currently waiting patiently at the library for the Bones series so it's nice to get a book by her for free.

It took awhile but the price finally showed zero for me. Sounds interesting
