When the river jumps the banks, eating the city's downtown core as it goes, one man, homeless by choice, is forced to confront his past in order to save those he cares about. Visually rich and intense, Robin van Eck's debut novel provides a deep reflection on humanity- An eye-opening, haunting, and unforgettable read. Fran Kimmel, author of No Good Asking.

It is 2013 and Calgary's Bow river is beginning to rise. Two homeless men stand by the bank and contemplate the death of another friend-an accident?

Taking cover downtown that night, Shermeto intervenes in the attack on a bar patron, and finds himself laid up in the hospital. Outside, as the city reels from an unthinkable disaster, Shermeto finds himself away from the swelling river and face-to-face with the a part of past he is trying to hide from: his daughter Kendra.
