Who Am I?

Reviewers say:
“I love this series of books. I feel like I am visiting a town I grew up in when I read another volume. It's nice because you could start with any one of the books and still know who all the characters are. Looking forward to another book by Renee Kumor.”
- Roberta A. Depiero

“River Bend is a small town filled with secrets, intrigues, romances, and murder. Lynn and Dusty seem to weather the storms -- allowing us to join them in this wonderful series.”
- Pamela Page

Lynn Powers is facing the month of May caught up in the activities driven by a son who is graduating from high school. But that doesn’t stop her from becoming embroiled in mayhem as she discovers an elderly black woman who has been assaulted. Throughout the story Lynn and her family learn about the history of many people in town, including the simmering feuds and sad stories among members of River Bend’s African-American community. In addition, Lynn learns more of her own family history as she discovers a small diary belonging to her mother. Mix all this in with the usual antics of Lynn, Dusty and their family and it adds up to another installment of the River Bend Chronicles.

Renee Kumor was a stay-at-home mom for several years developing a personal ethic of community service. She began writing a political opinion column for the local newspaper, but retired from writing when she announced her candidacy for local political office. After eight years as a county commissioner, she returned to non-profit service and began writing a monthly column for the newspaper on non-profit management and service issues. The setting for the River Bend Chronicles series reflects her early life in Ohio and her later years in western North Carolina.
