My whitewater rafting murder mystery "Whitewater: A Novel" is complete and available to review! May I send you an advance manuscript to review? Thanks, Bill cell 510 409 9300 FYI Here's a book-jacket teaser for "Whitewater: A Novel" by William McGinnis While searching for his parents' killers, ex-Navy SEAL captain Adam Weldon encounters a lovely undercover FBI agent, a ruthless drug cartel intent on killing him, a gambling casino for the super-rich run by a radio preacher, a host of motley river guides, and a succession of hair-raising challenges both in and out of the whitewater rapids of the Kern River. This fascinating page turner is sure to enrich the reader's experience of any river—and of life itself. Not only is it fun and fast paced, but also, woven into its rich fabric is a celebration of nature and life-enhancing wisdom including insights into the wellsprings of human kindness and high-level wellness. _______________________________________________________________ Readers and Writers Comment on "Whitewater: A Novel " “What a great read!

He was one of the first major authors I started following, trying to read all of his books - and 'Fraternity...' was my introduction to his work. In fact, despite having a TBR pile that would give the Eiger a run for its money, I'm tempted to go back and re-read Frat and the others! Loving this site - a good place to chill out and dip in!

When asked which books influenced my writing style - the Joe Hunter thriller series - I usually mention TBOTR without a second's hesitation. It's a fabulous book, and has inspired many of the modern writers working in the tough guy fiction field today. I love it (but I think you probably guessed that?)
