Waterfall (The Waterfall Mysteries Book 1)

Description

A dead body, a flood, and a boy’s rescue. Can Annalisa Carabelle keep the boy safe while racing to discover a killer before it’s too late?

“This (mystery) kicks off with an intense water rescue and . . . kept me on my toes all the way to the end . . . I loved Anna and Richard together…and the romantic tension between them.” Meez Carrie, Reading is My Superpower

“Waterfall is a fast-paced mystery . . . Rodante’s artistic brush draws readers into waterfall scenes that evoke awe, power, and a sense of danger (intensifying) at every turn. (It’s also) a beautiful story of healing and redemption.” Valerie Banfield, Award-winning author of While I Count the Stars

All Annalisa Carabelle wants is a successful summer season for the bed-and-breakfast she co-owns. She never expected the flood, the boy who needed rescuing, or the man who came from nowhere to help. The dead body? Well, the wound to the head proved it had nothing to do with do with the deluge.

Richard Jordan’s plans for the summer include as much scrambling up waterfalls as possible. He needs the adrenaline rush because life has proven routine, even pointless. But both the woman and the boy called him a hero, and maybe the dead body is a wake-up call. Life might be worth living if he and this intriguing woman can find the killer and make sure he doesn’t kill again.

But they’ve got too many suspects, and even the police are baffled. With the family protecting the killer, he might just get away for good, unless they force his hand—and stay alive while they are doing it.
