Book Synopsis
The isolated, sleepy little village of Timber Falls--built on the bend of a swift mountain river--swells during the summer months as tourists flock to town to run the river, lured there by the Class V rapids.
Haley Martin used to be what the locals called a "river rat", back during the days of her college years. Now she owns the Timber Falls Bar and Grill, drawn back to the picturesque village seven years ago after the tragic death of her wife. Carter, a disgraced LAPD detective, was offered an out--a position on a team of unorthodox FBI agents. After a month of training, she is sent out on her own without a team or a partner. When the gruesome murder of a college student--a river rat--sends the FBI agent to Timber Falls, Carter has no idea what she's about to find there. She knows she's looking for a serial killer that's preying on tourists. But she has no idea that she might find some peace--and love--along the way.Review Quotes
Gerri Hill has proven repeatedly that she knows how to write a murder mystery. Timber Falls is yet another example of this. The serial killer aspect brings a few unexpected twists to the table which only elevates the intense plot. Hill's writing is superb as she brings you quickly into the story and holds your attention until the end. I would say this is a typical Hill novel but only if you understand 'typical' to mean an outstanding story, intriguing characters, beautiful settings, and unparalleled writing.-NetGalley, Della B.
The great thing about Gerri Hill is that she can write a good gruesome murder mystery and a down-to-earth romance with likeable main characters in one book. Add the small-town settings in the mountains and you get a perfect read for a rainy day or any day for that matter. I can't wait for her next book!-NetGalley, Ms Hyde
