The River Has Teeth

By: Erica Waters

Narrated by: Katherine Littrell, Sura Siu

Lush and chilling, with razor-sharp edges and an iron core of hope, this bewitching, powerhouse novel of two girls fighting back against the violence the world visits on them will stun and enchant readers.

Girls have been going missing in the woods…

When Natasha’s sister disappears, Natasha desperately turns to Della, a local girl rumored to be a witch, in the hopes that magic will bring her sister home.

But Della has her own secrets to hide. She thinks the beast who’s responsible for the disappearances is her own mother—who was turned into a terrible monster by magic gone wrong.

Natasha is angry. Della has little to lose. Both are each other’s only hope.

From the author of Ghost Wood Song, this eerie contemporary fantasy is perfect for fans of Wilder Girls and Bone Gap.

Let’s go lesbians!

Barely put this one down and was very tempted to call into work to finish it that first day. Is it too cliche to say I was enchanted?
The southern gothic in this is such a good flavor for the darkness of the story. I usually don’t like pov shifts in books, but I will make an exception because of all the beautiful dramatic irony that ensued here.
Really well done on both the author and the voice actors. Would absolutely recommend!

Fantastic sophomore release!

Erica's work is a haunting southern mystery, with magic that feels real. I loved it! Can't wait for the next book.

A wonderful story about righteous rage

A fantastic, cinematic listen! Suspense and magic are always a fantastic combination, and throw in some righteous rage? I haven't read many books as satisfying.

Gripping Entrancing Story

This is a really immersive paranormal murder mystery. Well narrated. I loved every moment.
You not want to stop listening.

I couldn't stop listening

I had to pull my car over because I got transported into the bend.
