Ransom on the River: Deep River Inn

By Bettie Jane and Auburn Seal

A gripping historical cozy mystery series about life for a woman living on the edge of the Pacific Ocean in the early twentieth century.

In the aftermath of the Great War and the influenza epidemic that ravaged the globe, Sadie Elouise sets out to forget her tragic past. She leaves Astoria, Oregon and moves upriver to a small town on the Columbia River, but the vast wilderness of the Pacific Northwest and matters of the heart are determined to show her that she can run, but she cannot hide.

In Book 1, Sadie is drawn into a desperate search for a missing child. Her new husband, Sheriff Daniel Anderson falls ill and and now Sadie must navigate the harsh winter terrain and the even more treacherous politics of a small town-alone.

Part mystery, part suspenseful adventure, join Sadie as she struggles to survive in and around the waters of Deep River.
