Visitors to Forestville are taken aback by its picturesque valleys laden with roaming vineyards. However, Forestville is more than a gateway to the Russian River; it is a diverse array of businesses, wineries, farming, and recreation. Forestville grew from the Spanish land grant traded by Capt. Juan Bautista Rogers Cooper from his brother-in-law Gen. Mariano Vallejo in 1834 into the town known by passing travelers as "Swindle Rig." In 1867, the town was named Forestville after Andrew Jackson Forrister, a saloon owner. It was set apart from other settlements by having the first powered sawmill in California and the FaudrAA(c) Chair factory, the largest manufacturing plant in Sonoma County of that era. Collectors still seek out the factory's rawhide-bottom chairs. As a popular stop on the railway line, many vacationers from San Francisco passed through on their journeys to the Russian River. In 1963, the town continued to be different, setting aside land for a community youth park, so it is no wonder the town's slogan is "Forestville the Great Life."
A brilliantly layered novel of crime, character, and place from the two-time Edgar Award winner, Gold Dagger Award winner, and New York Times bestselling author of Sunset Limited.

Heartwood is a kind of tree ...
Lester Morgan built the first sawmill on the White River in 1868. By 1873, he established the first post office at Morgan Station's railroad depot. Morgan had a four-story building'known as the Morgan Inn'erected on North Street, which was the center of town. Sextus Wilcox and Lester Morgan platted the village of Morgan in July 1874. Wilcox bought out Morgan, and the village's name was changed to White Cloud, which sits in the center of Newaygo County. In 1910, the county seat was moved from Newaygo to White Cloud. With the loss of the railroad depot around 1963, the city structure severely diminished. However, White Cloud is famous for one of the only remaining wooden railroad trestles that is still in use today.
