As the River Rises

De: Fiona McArthur

Narrado por: Caroline Lee

When Dr Hannah Rogan, a GP from outback Queensland, moves to Featherwood to open a medical practice of her own, she finds the fresh start she needs. The town has rebuilt after devastating fires, and its growing population is desperate for her calm presence and expertise.

Her first patient is the son of the tight-lipped, attractive Jude, who comes from a mysterious closed community upriver. Jude has a troubled past he doesn't talk about, but now he's helping others to turn their lives around. The last thing Jude needs is to fall for the new doctor in town, but his son's illness means they'll be spending a lot of time together.

The rain starts, and doesn't stop. The creeks fill, the river bursts and soon the residents of Featherwood are at risk of losing everything they've rebuilt. As the floodwaters rise, so do emotions, and everyone must pull together to save lives and salvage whatever they can.
