Title: The river road
Description: "Searing and unforgettable, The River Road explores the rippling effects of tragedy on the lives of two families. David and Michael Sanderson are brothers, inseparable since childhood from each other and from their neighbor, Kay Richards, who has become a complicated young woman involved in a passionate and obsessive love affair with David.

One spring night, while at home on a break from college, the threesome embark on a night of adventure and experimentation, driving recklessly through the forested roads of the Connecticut Valley. Stopping at the French King Bridge, David - full of youthful hubris and hallucinogens - dares to jump off, mistakenly believing that he'll be able to swim ashore.

With this senseless plunge into the frigid, swollen river he sets into motion an inexorable chain of events that indelibly alters the lives of everyone involved: Michael, who watched from the car, Kay, who stood next to him and helped him climb onto the rail; and both sets of stunned parents who receive phone calls on that March night."--BOOK JACKET.
