About the Author

About The Author
Ken Wells grew up with one foot in the Louisiana swamps, the second of six sons of an alligator-hunting father and a gumbo-cooking mother. A longtime writer for The Wall Street Journal, he's authored five novels of the Cajun bayous, including the coming-of-age classic, Meely LaBauve. He divides his time between Chicago and a log cabin in the wilds of Maine.

Hillary Wells (Ken's niece) is a writer, comedian, and producer who rose from the bayous of South Louisiana to the Los Angeles comedy scene. These days she resides in New Orleans where, in between comedy gigs and cooking up gumbo, she works in the state's burgeoning filmmaking industry. This is her first novel.
