Trent Mullins holds the bottle of pills that failed to aid his climb out of the black hole that nearly killed him. Tossing the bottle over the Wrightsville Beach Drawbridge, he feels the first sliver of light in months. He leaves family, friends, and the area that had served as his home for his entire life. With the help of his best friend, Jackson, he lands in the coastal area of Georgia. A new job, unlikely landlords, and the peaceful marshlands that serve as his front yard slowly bring a measure of stillness to his troubled mind. But then an unwelcome phone call mandates his return home to bury the father he never knew and to face the son he left behind.
"Navigating the gamut of human relationships is never easy, particularly in the South, where the undercurrent of racism simmers below the surface, but Billy Beasley has written a suspenseful story that keeps you enthralled and doesn't let go until the very last page."- Kathryn Gauci, USA Today bestselling author
"Beasley's characters are as natural, intriguing, and as full of life as the Carolina coast they call home. Their conflicts play out in a low country Eden that is as stirring and primal as the passions of its people."- Joseph McSpadden, Host of the Village Night Owl Podcast and Contributing Editor, Okra Magazine
Billy Beasley's heartwarming novels are are starting to draw National Attention.
"The Girl In The River allowed me to visit a place I love, that made me who I am, every time I opened its pages. The story is a testament to the human spirit and the true nature of the people of my home state. As Josie shows, there is no more loyal love than that from a dog." LARA TRUMP FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR
