''Bayou St. John'' is a historical fiction book set in the pre-Civil War era, written by Arthur Pindle. == Plot Summary ==
Set in 1825, ''Bayou St. John'' is a novel about two fugitives with a master/slave relationship who escape to start new lives in New Orleans. After a series of adventures and complications, they finally become free of their pursuers. The center of the story takes place at a hotel now owned by one of the fugitives, Jacques, a young French aristocrat who was once known as Count Mathieu. In France, the count won a duel (with pistols, to the death) and fled to America to make a new start. Lucas, a young slave sold to a plantation owner, ends up killing the overseer. He attempts to escape from the dock in Charleston, where he encounters Jacques, who claims the young slave as his own, names him Pierre, and together they board a ship to New Orleans.〔(Amazon.com: Bayou St. John )〕
