Description
Four Atlanta businessmen embark on a weekend canoe trip down a wild, uncharted river in the Georgia wilderness, seeking an escape from their civilized lives. What begins as an adventurous outing quickly devolves into a harrowing ordeal when they encounter unexpected violence and are forced to confront their deepest fears and primal instincts. As they battle the unforgiving elements and their own inner demons, their journey becomes a brutal test of survival and a profound exploration of the thin veneer of modern society. This gripping narrative plunges readers into a visceral struggle for existence, questioning the very nature of humanity when stripped bare of its comforts.
