John Wolfe's second case is far more dangerous than Room 23 at the Mountainview Motel. When heavy rain is forecast, the residents of a small Tennessee town fear who could be next. The Mount Placid Police Department has recovered nine decomposed bodies from the banks near the amphitheater in four and a half years. Who could commit these terrible acts in such a friendly community? Worse, how are they getting away with murder? John is reeling from the details he just learned about the tragedy in his past. Will his insatiable thirst for revenge cloud his judgement? The River House is a suspenseful thriller that will grab you from the start, then make you question the preconceived character traits of a serial killer.
