Saenz\u003cbr\u003eThe summer of 1993 is ending in Beauregard Parish, Louisiana, and Cole Beaumont is still lying to himself about the bourbon.\u003cbr\u003eWhen Nora Guidry appears at his door needing a well pump fixed, neither of them expects what follows - a slow collision of two people who have been drinking their lives away with practiced, cheerful ease, and a mystery buried in the land itself. Nora has spent years quietly assembling the hidden history of her property: twenty-three graves sliding toward Sycamore Creek, a falsified deed of sale from 1847, and the long silence of a parish that has never wanted to answer for what happened on the old Tureaud plantation.\u003cbr\u003eSomeone else has been keeping that silence. A locked building on abandoned land. A shell company with no face. A family that has held the records for fifty years and is not done holding them.\u003cbr\u003eAs the season turns from the last white heat of summer into the amber clarity of fall, Cole and Nora move deeper into the land's dark history - and toward each other - with the particular courage of people who are finally, after a long time, choosing to stay. They are happy drunks, both of them. Functional. Cheerful. Careful. And they are running out of road.\u003cbr\u003eWhat the Creek Knows is a romantic dark thriller set in the bayou country of north Louisiana - a novel of fire and buried truth, of two people getting sober and falling in love at the same time, and of a land that has been keeping its record longer than anyone alive has been listening.\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Romantic Dark Thriller\u003cbr\u003eSetting: Beauregard Parish, Louisiana - Late Summer through Winter, 1993\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: D.
