The best-selling author of My Side of the Mountain takes listeners on a different sort of wilderness adventure in this intriguing tale of nature, survival, and mystery. Something about the Okefenokee Swamp of southern Georgia has always called to 14-year-old Jack Hawkins. But when a nervous mama gator takes a bite out of his handmade canoe, Jack finds himself stranded on a remote island, forced to find his own food and shelter-and to unravel a mystery that reaches far into his past and could change everything he thinks he knows about himself.
