A body in the river. A mother’s plea for justice. A private investigator who refuses to look away.
When the San Antonio River gives up the body of Marissa Luna, a young college student with everything ahead of her, the police are quick to call it an accident. But her mother knows better, and so does Nick Fischer, a former Marine turned private investigator with scars that run deeper than his past missions.
As Nick peels back the layers of Marissa’s life, he’s pulled into a world where the lines between power and corruption blur into the same dark current. The deeper he dives, the more he discovers that beneath the charm of San Antonio’s River Walk lies a network of privilege, lies, and political ambition, all protected by men who believe they’re untouchable.
Haunted by the ghosts of war and driven by a promise to the dead, Nick must face his own demons to bring a killer to justice. But in a city that worships power and buries its secrets under concrete and charm, finding the truth may cost him everything.
Gritty, cinematic, and charged with heart, River Walk Murder is a Texas noir that blends emotional depth with relentless suspense, perfect for readers who crave mystery with soul.
