On top of all that, he’s also secretly been seeing Lauren, his mother-in-law’s caregiver. When Neil breaks up a fight one day after school, he doesn’t give the altercation much thought. He’s got bigger issues on his mind, like the fact that Lauren is ready for a commitment and he has to figure out a way to tell Chris that he’s in a serious relationship with someone other than the boy’s mother. But when an anonymous person uploads a video of the fight to YouTube, the stunning footage suggests Neil assaulted a student. With his job, his family, and his reputation suddenly in jeopardy, Neil must prove his innocence and win back the trust of the entire community—including his son’s. Jon Harrison’s The Banks of Certain Rivers is a powerful tale of family, loss, and the meaning of love. Revised edition: This edition of The Banks of Certain Rivers includes editorial revisions.
