novels of the lumbering woods. But this tale takes a turn to the darker side of the characters sometimes hiding in the deep forests of Maine. A young, green river driver finds himself left behind by the crew at Toban Jaws - a place of log jams. Soon he is seduced away from his job into the nefarious occupation of his new companion.
