Wanton Creek has a reputation as beautiful, inviting, and just unsettling enough that older folks lower their voices when they talk about it. Sam Bennett never believed any of the stories...until the creek forced him to believe.
At the start of summer, Sam and his two best friends head to Wanton Creek for their annual campout, one last tradition before life pulls them apart. But something waits beneath the surface: a moment that will echo through Sam's life for years to come, shaping the battles he'll fight, the guilt he'll carry, and the man he becomes.
As Sam grows older, the creek never loosens its grip.
Some memories fade.
Some wounds heal.
But Wanton Creek remembers.
A story of friendship, fate, and the places that hold our secrets, Wanton Creek explores how a single moment can change the course of a life, and how some places call us back, no matter how far we run.
