On her seventieth birthday, Georgianna receives an unexpected letter from a man she hasn't seen in sixty-six years, one of the few witnesses to the camping trip that left her mother dead, her father in prison, and four-year-old Georgie effectively orphaned. Determined to understand the truth of what happened that fateful day, Georgie hauls her reluctant family on a perilous canoe trip to the Wisconsin campsite where her life fell apart. An atmospheric adventure of a family saga, this novel is as thrilling as it is poignant.
