The Eel River Murder Only the River Knows Millard Hiner The river has secrets… But for someone who’s hellbent on unearthing the truth, it also has answers… No one expects to discover a body on their morning run—especially not one of a much-loved member of the community. When Dr. Ann McBride finds the body of local fisherman and environmentalist Eli Turner tangled up in reeds on the bank of California’s Eel River, her life changes track.

There are tell-tale signs of foul play, and she’s determined not to let them go ignored. If the sheriff won’t listen, she has no choice but to take matters into her own hands. The question is, what did Eli know that made him a target? What had he seen on the river? Ann and her unlikely team of investigators are determined to find out and collect the evidence they need to show that Eli’s death was no accident… and what they find is a much bigger story than they bargained on. The more they learn, the more they feel Eli with them, leading them to clues and rescuing them from danger even in his absence. But what they think they know turns out to only be the tip of the iceberg—and it seems that the sheriff knows more about what happened than he’s letting on.
