Mary Alice Monroe is the author of Where The Rivers Merge. This story has two timelines. The book starts out in 1988 when the 88 year old Eliza is trying to decide who should take over her estate after her death. She could give it to her son but he feels entitled to it so she might leave it to her granddaughter and niece. The expansive estate lies within three rivers in South Carolina. Eliza has enjoyed the nature here since she was a little girl. Eliza decides to leave the property to a nature conservancy so everyone can enjoy it. I really enjoyed this historical fiction book.
