Local author, Berchman Richard, will be signing and selling his new book, “Death on the Atchafalaya” at the Westside Regional Library.

This story weaves together three plotlines:
1.The quest for an ancient treasure chest filled with stolen gold, hidden in the Louisiana swamps, and the men who search and die for it.
2. Two older men embarking on a final adventure aboard a small cabin cruiser, traveling through Texas and Louisiana’s waterways, heading toward the Atchafalaya swamp.
3. The convergence of these two stories as men in the swamp fiercely guard the secret of the buried gold from those who seek to steal it.
