Absolutely delivers! If you liked the movie, you will LOVE the book. Dickey keeps you riveted with his disturbing tale of a canoe trip gone bad.

Wow! Wonderful writing, I was halfway through the book in an instant. This is the epitome of an outdoor adventure gone wrong. But, it is well written and a great read!

Much better than the movie

I read this book quite a few years ago and remember it vividly. The review that I quoted from the back cover is really correct!! The movie that was made from it is just about as frightening as the book.

I thought the book would be better than the movie, but it was pretty much the same. Not a bad read.
