Book description
A city on flood alert, a killer on the rampage
Heavy rains have burst the banks of the WillametteRiver; several people

she went into the water. Soon, other victims are found, and Police
Detective Archie Sheridan realizes that Portland has a new serial killer
on its hands.
Reporter Susan Ward is on the story, but she’s also got other leads to
chase, and some secrets can be too frightening for prying eyes ... with
Archie following a bizarre trail of evidence, and Susan close behind,
the pair must unearth the identity of a vicious murderer, and uncover
the truth behind a mystery more than sixty years old ... Chelsea Cain
