Corby Ledbetter is struggling with the transition into fatherhood, the loss of his job, and a growing secret addiction that has thrown his marriage into a tailspin, and that's before he causes the tragedy that tears the family apart . . .
A powerful story of a young family in crisis, The River Is Waiting explores the wake of an accident that leads to an unthinkable tragedy, and whether or not a grief-stricken spouse can atone for their actions.
"In this moving exploration of an otherwise good man and loving father who happens to be an addict, Lamb goes deeply into what it means not only to survive tragedy, but to actually heal from it by stepping tentatively into real forgiveness.” -- Andre Dubus III, bestselling author of House of Sand and Fog and Ghost Dogs
