Turbulent, with ever-changing currents that threaten to pull you
under - this describes the wild Atchafalaya River and also the
stormy heart of Harold, a twelve-year-old boy coming of age during
the desperate days of the 1930s who is trying to navigate the
churning waters of love, loyalty, manhood... and the quest for God.
After seeing a man whose throat has been slashed in a bar fight,
Harold's father feels called to pastor the church in this volatile
Louisiana parish. He uproots his family and settles them in a shack
by the mighty river. They face uncertainty and danger right from
the beginning within the church and town, as well as the dangerous
waters of their own hearts. As the river's muddy waters rise, so do
the challenges facing Harold and his family. Beautifully written,
full of humor and warmth, The Wild River will immerse you in its
waters and pull you in with characters who come alive and cause you
to care. Will the town survive the river that threatens to tear it
apart? And will Harold's family be torn apart in the wild wake of
rising passions and fear?
