A wilderness investigation under rising waters

Mackenzie Bardine’s true-crime podcast draws her toward the drug kingpin she holds responsible for her brother’s murder—and back into the orbit of Gideon Landry, her brother’s best friend. In remote Washington, their shared history complicates an investigation already shadowed by danger. Gideon’s wilderness survival work and Mackenzie’s pursuit of justice converge as a flood threatens the town, adding an immediate escape challenge to the effort to expose a powerful criminal. The description also signals a romance shaped by past blame and reluctant cooperation, alongside survival suspense and a small-town setting.

Book overview

As the dam crumbles and water sweeps across the terrain, their battle for justice and survival is just beginning.

When Mackenzie Bardine's brother Aaron was murdered in a drug deal gone wrong, she started a true crime podcast dedicated to exposing "Bullseye," the drug kingpin responsible. But her protective heart has never let go of the blame she places on herself and Aaron's best friend, Gideon Landry. On the run to the wilds of Washington to chase a recent lead, she meets none other than Gideon himself.

While conducting a wilderness survival class in remote Washington, Gideon never expected to cross paths with Mackenzie, and he's certainly not interested in helping her after he's already declined to participate in her vigilante podcasting. He carries a mountain of guilt about Aaron's fatal choices, but not for the reasons Mackenzie suspects.

As killers begin to circle Mackenzie like sharks, it's clear to Gideon she's in over her head, and in light of his troubled past with her brother, he can't bring himself to ignore her perilous situation. Then a flood threatens the town, turning their investigation into a race to escape the raging waters and the wrath of a powerful kingpin who wants to sink them both.
