Those were the last words Elise Moloney expected to hear when she came to Wickman College as a graduate student. Nestled along the windswept dunes and seacoast of Cape Cod, Wickman was home to a tragedy the year before when troubled Hannah McPhee fell from a bridge into the freezing currents of the Drowning River. With gasps and stares, Elise's fellow grad students insist she is a dead ringer for Hannah.
The more she explores Hannah's past, the more she loses herself in a labyrinth of deceit, betrayal, and danger, unearthing life-shattering secrets. Convinced that Hannah's death was no accident, Elise investigates with new friends at her side: an over-sexed roommate with a supermodel body and two men who desire Elise for very different reasons. In the small town of Oceanside, everyone has something to hide. With each discovery, Elise comes closer to the truth and a confrontation with a killer - where one final victim will face death in the Drowning River.
