Riverside Drive – Laura Van Wormer

Description

In Riverside Drive, Laura Van Wormer takes readers into the heart of a seemingly idyllic neighbourhood, where five households share a unique bond through their connection to Rosanne DiSantos, a witty yet fiercely loyal cleaning woman. As Rosanne stumbles upon the secrets her employers would rather keep hidden, the complex lives of the residents of Riverside Drive are slowly uncovered.

The story centres around the Cochran family—beautiful Cassy, handsome Michael, and their perfect son Henry. As a family deeply involved in the world of television, appearances are crucial to the Cochrans, but their perfect facade begins to crack. Cassy, caught between the glamorous life of television anchorwoman Alexandra Waring, her struggle with alcohol, and her own identity crisis, begins to wonder if it will be one of these forces that finally drives her marriage to Michael over the edge.

Set in a world of high expectations and hidden struggles, Riverside Drive is a compelling tale about relationships, secrets, and the lies we live to protect our identities. Van Wormer’s rich narrative explores the cost of living under the pressure of public image and the complexities of personal connections.
