THE CROSSING



"Redemption is born of guilt, and weighs heavy on even the strongest man." Stephen King

In self exile on the remote Australian island of Tasmania, Taylor Bridges is the only Ranger of an isolated National Park, its former logging town slowly drowning beneath the rising waters of the new dam project down-river. Struggling with the guilt of his own missing daughter on the mainland a year before, Taylor has since become a chronic sleepwalker.

So when another little girl goes missing in his park a year to the day of his own child's unsolved disappearance, Taylor's sense of redemption finds him wading in over his head to find her. The only problem is, due to his sleep walking, Taylor must first take himself off the growing list of suspects.

As the clues mount, he races against time and the rising lake waters to find the girl. But the town's dark history unearths a trail of missing children over many years, resulting in a dramatic twist when the perpetrators are eventually revealed.
