Bone Wire

Grace Felton has spent twenty-five years burying a secret about where she came from. Now five old college friends paddle into the remote Ozark wilderness to scatter the ashes of the sixth member of their group, and the river pulls them toward a hollow that no map marks and no local will name. Something ancient and feral lives in those hills — something organized, patient, and hungry. Stranded without boats and hunted through bone-strung trees, the survivors will learn that the deadliest thing in the hollow isn't the clan stalking them. It's the truth Grace has been carrying all along.
