WHERE THE RIVER RUNS RED is a nonstop thriller as fast-paced and twisty as the Rainbow River itself. Featuring a cast of South Georgia and Florida characters who are utterly convincing and ever-so-menacing, Pollack's latest entwines family loyalty, professional pride, and naked ambition to create a book rooted in its locale—and the darkest corners of human nature.

When Chad Greer is convicted of murdering his girlfriend Megan, he's only 17, and of course he insists he didn't do it. When he's still insisting fifteen years later, he is denied parole. But by then his beloved sister Sawyer is a brand-new assistant district attorney, determined to prove his innocence, and Sawyer won't take no for an answer. Digging into the case, she turns up Mason Walcott, a war-scarred journalist who mysteriously appears and offers to help vindicate her brother. Brash, brave, and eager, Sawyer delves deeper into the case and discovers unsettling truths that put her and those closest to her squarely in the cross-hairs of people who'd prefer that the past stays as dead as Megan. Undaunted by attacks and threats to her life and career, Sawyer won’t stop until she sets her brother free. That is, unless her attackers get to her first....
