Book Description
Twelve‐year‐old Teego Chalmers, his summer looking to be a bust due to a broken wrist, is invited to accompany his archeologist uncle, Dr. Oliver Chalmers using a month-long grant to study the site of the massacre of 33 Chinese miners in Deep Canyon some 100 years prior. Teego plans to spend his time fishing while his uncle works but a prickly grad student, a daughter of a local outfitter, and the canyon with its powerful river, conspire to involve him in events that threaten his life and challenge his courage. In the process he learns a lot about himself, boats, and the power of water. This is a fast moving, action‐packed adventure tale told through the eyes of a pre‐teen boy.
