Synopsis "Undercurrents: A Novel"

Undercurrents, thedebut novel from fourth-generation Montanan, Joan Maki, steps through forestdoorways and crosses rivers into twilight's thresholds to dissect the emotionaland psychological aftermath of Kit in the wake of themysterious disappearance of Patrick, a childhood friend who vanished sosuddenly it was as if he fell into the Earth. Decades after this incident, Kitescapes her rural Montana upbringing for a new life in the city, but her disjointedmemories and the questions she has had to carry bind her to her past. WasPatrick claimed by natural forces, falling into the river or a ravine? Was hisestranged father involved? Or, as old Marg believes, was the boy claimed by thepeople of the forest? Will Kit be able to find closure as she raises her ownchild and is inevitably drawn back toward the woods of home? Imbued with elements of Finnish folklore, Undercurrents chartsthe liminal destruction of society and self, where wild and rural places areencroached upon by more contemporary forces. Like a story written on a warped mirror, Undercurrents presentsa calm surface slightly askew, and definitely dangerous, where mind, lore, religion, and reality collide in uncanny reflections.
