Overview

Sharon Simpson attended high school in Morgan City in 1978. Morgan City was a sleepy town along the bayou in Louisiana. No one could have imagined what was about to happen to them.The oil industry was booming back then and the desperate need for workers to fill the many positions led to a lackadaisical approach to hiring and firing? pretty much any warm body would do so long as the work was getting done on schedule.Money and greed led to the hiring of a man who caused Morgan City a world of pain. His spree included the rape and murder of several young people one of whom Sharon knew well.Forty-plus years later, the story still stuck in her crow. When she met her soon to be writing partner, Lil Barcaski, she knew she needed to revisit that awful time and write about it. But how? Together, they found the answer. This book is pure fiction, but it's based in the feelings shared by Sharon and her fellow classmates who still talk about the murders at class reunions and on social media. Those events changed their lives and the life of the town itself.
