Seven years ago, a rafting guide murdered fifteen people at Camas Creek, deep inside the roadless canyon of the Garnet River. The lone survivor escaped, the killer was declared dead, and the river slowly became a destination again.
Kaia never planned to revisit that history. She joins a five-day women-only rafting retreat for a far more personal reason: to finish the wilderness adventure she once planned with her late husband and prove to herself that grief has not taken everything from her.
But the Middle Fork offers no easy escape. There are no roads for more than a hundred miles, no phone signal, and long stretches of canyon where the only way out is forward.
As the group moves deeper into the wilderness, accidents begin to look deliberate. Old details from the Camas Creek massacre resurface. Suspicion turns the rafters against one another, and the river itself grows more dangerous with every mile.
Trapped between violent whitewater and a killer who appears to know exactly how to use the canyon against them, Kaia and the remaining rafters must decide who they can trust before the current carries them beyond any chance of rescue.
