✦ Synopsis

In 1954, in the cookhouse of a logging and sawmill settlement in northern New Hampshire, an anxious twelve-year-old boy mistakes the local constables girlfriend for a bear. Both the twelve-year-old and his father become fugitives, forced to run from Coos Countyto Boston, to southern Vermont, to Torontopursued by the implacable constable. Their lone protector is a fiercely libertarian logger, once a river driver, who befriends them. In a story spanning five decades, Last Night in Twisted River depicts the recent half-century in the United States as a living replica of Coos County, where lethal hatreds were generally permitted to run their course. What further distinguishes Last Night in Twisted River is the authors unmistakable voicethe inimitable voice of an accomplished storyteller.
