BLOOD and WATER - Robert Rosenbaum J

An old rancher drives his pickup into the Flint River and doesn't survive. A straightforward instance of falling abilities - except there is no apparent cause for either the accident or his death. This bothers C.W. Blakenship and Jake Grummond, his occasional partner in crime solving. Their uneasiness turns to suspicion as the heirs quarrel over the ranch and an out-of-state resort developer angles for the ranch's water rights and bodies begin to pile up.
