Description: Eddy Peters returns stateside after two tours in Iraq, struggling with relationships and authority. He flees to the backwater town of Monte Rio along the Russian River in northern California for solitude and recovery. However, he is soon swept up in a bitter political battle. The locals are divided over a bond measure that would provide the tax money needed for a treatment plant. Some fear the inevitable invasion of bureaucratic agencies and developers. Others agree with their chamber president and the deep-pocketed Bohemian Club, hopeful for a financial facelift of their decaying hamlet. Eddy aligns himself with a feisty masseuse, a run-down golf superintendent and a defrocked priest to fight the powers that be. Quirky twists, fate and greed intervene to settle the matter.
