Stillriver

by AND ROSENHEIM (Author)

Synopsis

Michael Wolf felt he had escaped his past - Stillriver, the small town in Michigan where he grew up, his troubles with his father, the petty jealousies and competitiveness of his younger brother and most of all the disaster that ended his relationship with Cassie, the love of his life. As the book opens, Michael is forced to return to Stillriver when he is told of his father's brutal murder. He finds the town's new prosperity only partly masks old hurts and humiliations. But when he discovers that Cassie has also returned to Stillriver, he is thrown into total turmoil while trying to solve the mystery of his father's death.

Media Reviews
Rosenheim eschews playing the plot simply for thrills, preferring to engage the reader's emotions, but nevertheless comes up with a real page-turner. -- Daily Mail
Author Bio
Andrew Rosenheim came to England from America as a Rhodes Scholar in 1977. He has lived near Oxford ever since. In October 1999 he was travelling in from Oxford to his job as MD of Penguin Press when the train he was on collided with another just outside Paddington. Andrew was in the front carriage of the Great Western train (Carriage H). For him it was a life changing experience. He decided to leave his senior position in publishing and write full-time. This wonderfully moving novel is the result.
