About the Book

Twelve-year-old Sam has been given a fishing boat by his father, but he hates fishing. Instead, he uses the boat to explore the forbidden swamp around his Gulf Shore home. One day Sam discovers a boy named Davey repairing an abandoned cabin in the deep woods. Sam knows Davey isn’t telling him the whole story as to why he is out there, but tries to help. However, this leads to a chain of lies that grow bigger and bigger and lead to more danger for Sam and Davey.
