Introduction Round:

What you tell other people:

My name is River.  I come from San Fransisco.  On afternoons where I am not working, I can be found sitting on the Bay, going after fish.  I am came to the Inn, because of the fishing in this area.  Right after breakfast, I normally head straight to the dock, and row out onto the pond, where I spend the day relaxing in the sunshine.  When I am working, I am a free lance photographer.

What you don't want anyone else to discover: 

You are actually hiding out here, at the Inn, because your publisher has flubbed your contract with a travel magazine.  And flubbed is right.  You were supposed to be getting pictures of whales.  Instead, you were told to infiltrate illegal whaling enterprises and get expose photographs.  Which you did.  However, you have upset both the environmental community in addition to the fisherman in the Washington State area.  You did so by speaking to a captain and getting drunk with him at a party, induced a severe hangover in him the next morning.  Unfortunately, he was the captain for an oil rig, and he crashed his boat, spilling oil everywhere.  This you were unaware of, as you boarded a fishing vessel the next day and were incommunicado for a month.  You have been named as the Blonde Bomber in the very public investigation.  The oil rig captain claims that you drugged his drink and caused the accident.  You are laying low until the investigation is over with, your publisher paying for the bills.
