She’s got a ragged red backpack, a kayak, and a dream. Leaving behind wealth and comfort, will this nonconforming young woman find untold riches? Toronto, Canada, 1997. Tish Brady is suffocating. Freshly returned from wilderness training in Africa, the lonely twenty-three-year-old hates being trapped under her parents’ stern, upper-crust thumbs. So when she spies a brochure for a whitewater rafting company, she flees the city for the Ottawa Valley’s raging rapids. Unused to feeling like she belongs, Tish is delighted to discover kindred spirits and an adrenaline-filled job as a raft guide. But even as she pushes the boundaries of a male-dominated industry, flirtatious romances, and her ingrained beliefs, she knows winter will soon end her joyous interlude. Will the splash of the unexpected put her exactly where she needs to be? Adapted from actual events, professional whitewater athlete and world medalist Tiffany Manchester’s semi-autobiographical novel combines easy-to-read chapters, raw truths, and unique passages using the perspective of her beloved backpack, Red Fran. From surviving on two mangos and a bottle of rum in the Ecuadorian jungle to bittersweet encounters with her soulmate, readers will delight in this nuanced journey toward self-discovery. The River Away From Home is an uplifting work of women’s adventure fiction. If you like heroines not afraid of danger, the thrill of exploration, and occasional PG-13 steamy scenes, then you’ll love Tiffany Manchester’s vivid escapades.
