Graff. 250 $a First Edition. 264 1 $a New York, NY : $b Harper Collins Publisher, $c 2022. 300 $a 288 pg. 500 $a "It's the summer of 1994 in Claypot, Wisconsin, and the lives of ten-year-old Fischer "Fish" Branson and Dale "Bread" Breadwin are shaped by the two fathers they don't 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 natural terrors of Ironsford Gorge threaten to overwhelm them. Four adults track them into the forest--toward the novel's heart-pounding climax on the edge of the gorge--each one on a journey of his or her own: Sherriff Cal, who's having doubts about a life in law enforcement; Tiffany, a poet looking for connection; Fish's 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 the river itself amid the vividly rendered landscape of the Upper Midwest.". 541 $d 20230517. 650 1 $a Forests and forestry $v Fiction. 650 $a Runaway children $v Fiction. 651 $a Wisconsin $v Fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l CCPB522 $d 20231018010526.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C360C0CE6D7B11EEBBB0FB5526ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
