Matt Rutledge is on business in the Louisiana country. He decides to stay at an old house which is a bed-and-breakfast type of place owned by two sisters, Charlotte and younger Lucy. Charlotte is in and out of love with town sheriff Cleve Doucet while seductive Lucy is attracted to Matt. Written by Anonymous
Orphans Charlotte and her kid sister on tranquilizers, frail Lucy, run their ancestral Louisiana estate as a B&B. Businessman and guest Matt Rutledge becomes shy Lucy's lover. Matt ignores a warning to leave for his own safety by Etienne LeViolette, the girls' studly friend in the nearby bayou swamp, the only one who suspects that Charlotte is a killer after the disappearance and presumed murder of Lucy's first lover, local adolescent Jud Nevins. Sherif Cleve Doucet suspects Etienne, but also digs into the past, which holds a more elaborate dark secret leading to more bloodshed. Written by KGF Vissers
