He's a mostly happy man- he's a new father, and he and his wife Caroline are building their dream house on an idyllic patch of river bottomland.

The county hires him to find out if a road runs over some misplaced bodies in a long-abandoned potter's field. A former priest with a side hustle in extortion ends up very dead. A crew of Russians in fast cars is running amok through the Montana landscape. All this as an old nemesis returns, pulling Jules back to confront what he's been avoiding his entire life- the death of his father. Published alongside newly reissued editions of the entire series, The River View is further proof that ""you haven't been west in any meaningful sense until you've been to Blue Deer"" (The New York Times)."

Reviews

"“Jamie Harrison’s Blue Deer ain’t the Montana of Gary Cooper or Joel McCrea movies. It’s populated by well-to-do transplants who zoom over the mountains and pastures in trendy vehicles and indulge in nefarious swindles despite the heavenly natural surroundings. The River View is an ornery coyote of a novel.” —Barry Gifford, author of Ghost Years and Sailor & Lula: The Complete Novels ""The River View and all the Jules Clement novels of Jamie Harrison are a welcome antidote to those sprawling, prime-time renditions of the New West. The heroes and villains of small-town Montana are way more intriguing—the crime is grubbier, the passion is bloodier, the revenge is sloppier—but the mountain views are just as spectacular. And Jules is beyond cool."" ––Carl Hiaasen"
