In his terrifying odyssey through the bayou Paul interacts with its Cajun inhabitants while navigating through the deadly swamp where gators and snakes abound. He is guided by a mysterious fortuneteller. The voodoo princess knows all. Will she lead him to the truth or down the path of destruction?The serenity of the bayou can bring great joy but beware: monsters lurk within it, and most of them are human.
