Residents of a settlement of poor mountain people living along a rustic stream are mysteriously dying. They look to Ray Quentin, an Environmental Enforcement Officer, who finds a major source of pollution and determines there are grounds for a criminal case. Fearing his arrest, a local businessman hires former prison inmates to put an end to the investigation. A hastily organized state environmental agency fails to adequately protect Quentin and fellow officers. To Drink from a Stream is a novel about the dangers faced by these officers in the early years of environmental enforcement.
