River Mouth

After her mother’s death, college freshman Camille Whaley is left wrestling with grief and a new water phobia. Her grades are slipping, and her scholarship hangs in the balance.

Desperate to prove herself, she takes a job cataloging the work of 19th-century artist Silas Kaiser at Riverside House, a once-grand estate now falling into decay. There, she encounters its aloof heir, Julian Hartsaw, and his ill but enigmatic nephew, Victor.

Then Camille discovers a message from her mother telling her to stay away from the estate. Confused, she digs deeper, finding clues in the Silas Kaiser collection—clues tied to Victor’s illness and her own mother. But Silas also warns of something lurking in the nearby river. . . As the mystery tightens, Camille must decide who to trust before the estate’s secrets consume her.
