When Dr. Hope Sze trades the crime-ridden city of Montreal for a fishing trip with her dad, she expects misty lakes and crimson maple leaves. In other words, a perfect family fun day. Then Hope’s mother—never the sharpest scalpel in the neighbourhood—drags along crazy uncle Leonard, transforming Black Donald Lake into a very dark place.

Gillian Flynn spins taut thrillers about beautiful families gone horribly wrong; Melissa Yi crafts three intertwined short stories about fledgling doctor Hope Sze, who escapes the murder and the love triangles at her hospital to take her father fishing on the Madawaska River, only to discover that her own family might represent the most dangerous wildlife of all.
