Offered in 0 more formats"Its the summer of 1994 in Claypot, Wisconsin, and the lives of ten-year-old Fischer zFishy Branson and Dale zBready Breadwin are shaped by the two fathers they dont talk about. One night, tired of seeing his best friend bruised and terrorized by his no-good dad, Fish takes action. A gunshot rings out and the two boys flee the scene, believing themselves murderers. They head for the woods, where they find their way onto a raft, but the river and the natural terrors of Ironsford Gorge threaten to overwhelm them. Four adults track them into the forest, each one on a journey of his or her own, each one hoping to find the boys in time to save them: Sheriff Cal, whos having doubts about a life in law enforcement; Tiffany, a purple-haired gas station attendant and poet looking for connection; Fishs mother, Miranda, full of fierce faith; and his grandfather Teddy, who knows the woods like the back of his hand. This timeless story of loss, hope, and adventure runs like a river itself amid the vividly rendered landscape of the Upper Midwest." --
