Summer, 1994, Claypot, Wisconsin. Tired of seeing his best friend, Dale "Bread" Breadwin, bruised and terrorized by his no-good dad, ten-year-old Fischer "Fish" Branson takes action. A gunshot rings out and the two boys flee the scene, believing themselves murderers. They head for the woods, where they find their way onto a raft, but the natural terrors of Ironsforge gorge threaten to overwhelm them. Four adults track them into the forest, each one on a journey of his or her own.-- adapted from jacket

Amazing! submitted by angie. on August 24, 2021, 9:24pm love this! this is such a great book. I enjoyed it, and I think that you will too.
A Modern Huck Finn Tale submitted by JJM.Deucher on June 26, 2023, 1:29pm Listed as Adult Fic, but could easily appeal to an older/more mature YA reader. Coming of age, complex family dynamics, and a touch of suspense.
