The river sorrow

At thirty-four, with hair left long as a reminder of a rougher time and place, Lancaster has resettled in Morgantown, a small Midwestern City on the banks of the River Sorrow. Lancaster is a man with a past everyone knows: A doctor who became an addict, beat his habit, and got a rare second chance at his career and his life. He's grateful, hardworking, and dedicated...and he's about to find out just how easily someone can blow it all away.
That someone may be Morgantown police detective Frank Brandon, an old-timer who believes his gut instincts are never wrong. Now those instincts are telling him that Lancaster is somehow connected to the murder of John Doe...and to the killings that are starting to happen with a brutal regularity to people Lancaster knows.
Shadowed by police, changed forever in the arms of a mysterious young woman, Lancaster must risk his career and his life to follow the body-strewn trail in hope of clearing his name. And in a sudden convergence of past and present, Lancaster makes a shattering discovery - one that could lead him out of this nightmare...or back forever into the sweet, deadly dream-state of addiction.
