With a single distant gunshot ringing through the humid river bottom, everything in Seth's life changes forever. Within a few hours he's captured by the shooter and forced to go on a murderous joyride through the Midwest -- leaving everything behind to start a new life of crime.

Seth barely survives the brutal initiation into a gang of wayward misfits assembled by his captor -- lonely kids terrified of the strangest, most dangerous man any of them had ever met -- all of them hellbent on reaching new markets for their homemade narcotics.

From shootouts through lush farm fields to run-ins with the law -- bloody bar fights to a chilling cave beneath Kansas City, Seth evolves from sheep to shepherd as he struggles to accept his new place in the world -- as he weighs whether to turn fully from prey to predator -- wrestling all the while with loyalty and the cost of freedom.

A taut blend of rural noir, psychological suspense and outlaw adventure, The River Snakes charts a dark descent down America's heartland rivers. For fans of Deliverance and No Country for Old Men, this is a tale of grit, betrayal and the price of breaking free.
