When Jonathan and his grandfather witness - and photograph - a puzzling and violent struggle during a log drive on a raging river in the Maine woods, they don't suspect anything more than that an accident may have occurred. But soon the bizarre scene comes back to haunt them in the form of a stranger showing an uncommon interest in Grandpa's undeveloped pictures. Who is this stranger, and how far will he go to obtain the negatives before someone else gets hurt - or worse? A tightly wound, riveting mystery set in the 1890s from the acclaimed Betty Levin.
