RIVER TALE of Katherine Rose

Katherine Rose always believed she was meant for something bigger. With dreams of going to Harvard or NYU, she thought she had it all figured out. But everything falls apart after prom night, when Ryan Callahan, the boy she thought cared about her, used her for a one-night stand and left her broken. In chasing Ryan, she pushed away the only real friend who cared ,Kenneth Wallace, her prom date, who she abandoned that same night. Heartbroken and full of regret, Katherine joins a group hiking trip into the mountains near a dying ghost town, hoping to escape her pain for a while. Among the group are strangers, college boys, families... people just trying to breathe. But deep in the woods, something or someone watches them. A tribe, forgotten by time and ruled by hunger. As people begin to vanish, fear turns into a fight for survival. The group is hunted, trapped, and torn apart. Now, with blood on her hands and nowhere left to run, Katherine must face the horror outside and the guilt inside. Because sometimes, the past doesn't stay buried. And out here, the only way to survive... is to become something else.
