Girl in the River

By Patricia Kullberg

Book Overview

Were the "good ole days" really that good?Not so much in post-war Portland. Mae Rose lives in the underbelly of society, on the lam from a knife-wielding pimp. Dr. Ruth Barnett runs a lucrative abortion service. Both are in the crosshairs of Dottie "Do-Good" Lee, anti-vice crusader and aspiring politician. Her pet attack dog is an obsessed DA with his own dirty little secrets. Their lives intertwine in a tale of how life really was during the Age of Americana, not as Hollywood portrayed it. As Mae puts it, "I didn't make the world, I just make my way in it, as best I can.
