Summary:

A podcast novel by Chicago Saloon Poet / LA Podcaster Larry Winfield.

The Legend of Banjo Strings:

A pair of plantation slave ghosts are carrying out a mission of vengeance against the first-born sons of the Wainwright and LeChette Houses, the most prominent of the old plantation families in Wainwright County, Mississippi. The tightly kept secret is exposed by the latest victim in a letter to "The File Room," a new cable show that investigates and confirms supernatural phenomena. The show is supported by the recently exposed organization 'The Campus,' that has monitored and policed the supernatural world for over a century.

The show's producer, a descendant of the agency's founder, discovers evidence pointing to a renegade band within the agency, helping keep the families' dark secret. He is forced to "recruit" an old friend, a disgraced former TV reporter, sending him undercover on a "simple reconnaissance mission" to the post-Katrina landscape of Wainwright County. Dodging the local sherrif and the families was one thing, dealing with the unpredictable and deadly ghost Polly was another...

Banjo Strings is an epic and graphic tale of antebellum ghosts, ancient scandal, supernatural spies, and a modern-day den of iniquity hiding amid the Red Maple and Magnolia trees.

=============

This is a serialized novel in progress being written live, not an audio version of a previously published book. It's also my first book, but instead of going the conventional route I decided on this bold artistic experiment I couldn't even imagine undertaking a year ago. This is a cool challenge as well.
