The Ritornello Game Rhonda Chandler

A family desperate for money. A child prodigy--the heir to the family fortune--missing. Riverview House holds many secrets.

Mark Newlin is a history professor at Gold College in southwestern Illinois. When tragedy thrusts him into a life he doesn't want, well-meaning friends send him to a bed-and-breakfast on the river for rest and healing. But Riverview House is not the peaceful retreat described in the brochure.

Mark and his assistant Sean Merritt find themselves in the midst of an unusual Channon family gathering. Against his will, Mark is drawn into the wealthy family's struggles. And as his concern for the heir's welfare increases, he discovers the power to heal in the most unlikely place.
