About This Book

A man and a young woman awaken on an unfamiliar lakeshore with no memory of how they arrived, find modest provisions, and set out to survive and navigate a primeval river by canoe. Their journey unfolds in episodic adventures—campcraft and tentative companionship; storms, shipwreck, and hazardous encounters with other humans; a period of captivity; and an unfolding mystery about family connections and past identities. The narrative mixes outdoor survival detail, suspenseful confrontations, and evolving relationships as the pair move between wilderness isolation and nearby settlements, steadily uncovering explanations for their stranding.
