It only takes one fleeting moment for Liz Camden to change the lives of everyone she loves. The community along Oregon's Deschutes River is one of successful professionals and perfect families. For years, up-and-comers Liz and Owen have admired their good friends and neighbors, Carole and David. They appear to have it all--security, happiness, and a beautiful young son, Charlie.

Someone who knows that the mystery of the missing boy on the Deschutes River is far from over.
