Kudzu River
Author: Fran Rizer

Kudzu River is a gripping tale of three women?s lives entangled by a serial killer?a story of abuse, murder, and retribution. Unlike Fran Rizer?s previous Callie Parrish mysteries, Kudzu River is not a cozy. When Teacher of the Year Katie Wray returns to her hometown, Tanner, SC, she expects to be met by her sister Maggie who borrowed K... more »atie?s apartment and car for the summer. Instead, she finds that both Maggie and the car have disappeared. Katie is furious that, once again, Maggie proved to be irresponsible. She suspects that Maggie has gone off with the man she?d told Katie she was dating?Frankie Barker. Katie?s anger turns to fear when Sheriff Wade Jolley informs her that the Special .38 Colt Cobra revolver she borrowed from her ex has been found in an alley beside an unidentified corpse. Katie assures him the gun is at her apartment, but when they go there, the gun is missing along with Katie?s televisions, computer, landline phones, and expensive coffee maker. The sheriff questions whether the John Doe is Frankie Barker and Maggie shot him or Frankie shot the unidentified man and Maggie is an unfound victim. More bodies are found. Someone is carving a trail of dead teachers along coastal Carolina, and Katie fears Maggie is dead. She tries to talk about it with her friend Samantha Branham (also a teacher), but Samantha is more concerned about fitting into a size two dress, blonder hair, and conquering smooth-talking womanizer Sam Campbell than the possibility of personal danger. Tennessee Linda Pearson, a life-long victim, is haunted by her past, her dead parents, and her love of Jack Daniel's whiskey. Horrible memories of her childhood and the husband she married to escape her parents fill her days and nightmares, leaving no room to be concerned about what goes on around her. Though his photo is being shown on media nation-wide as a person of interest in the serial killings, Linda fails to recognize the killer when she sees him. When the murders increase in frequency and violence, Katie receives macabre gifts and threatening messages targeting her as the next to die. Senior Agent John Gross, FBI profiler, suggests using her as bait to chum the waters for the murderer, but Sheriff Jolley refuses. Torn between his desire to end this death spree and growing feelings for Katie, he?s already violated his usual strict adherence to protocol by allowing his attraction to her to dictate some questionable decisions. The killer is a threat to all women, especially teachers, but he targets Katie sending her macabre gifts and threatening messages. His confrontations are always deadly, and when he kidnaps Katie, the conclusion is explosive.
