"Wynn and Jack have been best friends since freshman orientation, bonded by their shared love of mountains, books, and fishing. Wynn is a gentle giant, a Vermont kid never happier than when his feet are in the water. Jack is more rugged, raised on a ranch in Colorado where sleeping under the stars and cooking on a fire came as naturally to him as breathing. When they decide to canoe the Maskwa River in northern Canada, they anticipate long days of leisurely paddles and picking blueberries and nights of stargazing and reading paperback Westerns. But a wildfire making its way across the forest adds unexpected urgency to the journey. When they hear a man and woman arguing on the fog-shrouded riverbank and decide to warn them about the fire, their search for the pair turns up nothing and no one. But: The next day a man appears on the river, paddling alone. Is this the man they heard? And, if he is, where is the woman?"--Provided by publisher.

Two Guys on a River submitted by amy on August 8, 2019, 10:15am Suspense builds slowly as two young men canoe a remote river in the Canadian wildernerss and stumble upon what may be a domestic fight and subsequent disappearance of a woman. Meanwhile, a wildfire is moving in inexorably from the northwest and there's no way out but to continue down the river to its mouth. Lots of nature in here for nature lovers, lots of thrills for both thriller lovers and thrill-seekers.
