Winifred Allen requires a vacation.

Stifled with a soul-crushing job, devastated with the death of her beloved brother, and lonely following the end of a fifteen-year marriage, Wini is certainly feeling vulnerable. So when her three about The River during the night best friends insist upon a high-octane getaway for his or her annual women’ trip, she signals on, despite her misgivings.

What starts out as an invigorating walking and rafting excursion in the remote control Allagash Wilderness quickly becomes an all-too-real headache; a freak incident leaves the women stranded, separating them off their raft and everything they need to survive. When night descends, a open fire in the mountainside lures them to a ramshackle camp that appears to be their lifeline. But simply because Wini and her close friends grasp the true purpose of their expected saviors, very long buried secrets emerge and lifelong allegiances are placed to the check. To endure, Wini must reach beyond the world she understands to funnel an inner strength she never knew she possessed.

With intimately observed characters and visceral prose, The River during the night “will leave you gasping, your heart race, eye peering over your shoulder to find out what follows from behind” (Mary Kubica, New York Occasions bestselling author). That is a dark exploration of creatures-both friend and foe-that you won’t soon forget.
