Part 1: “Book I (One Month Later)”

Prologue, Chapter 1 Summary

Marcie Bowers reveals that she “lost” her husband, David Bowers, on his 42nd birthday. Walking along the riverside in their hometown, Hemingway Grove, David took Marcie to the spot where they met 13 years earlier. As they reminisced, an SUV crashed through the railings of nearby Anna’s Bridge and plunged into the Cotton River. David dove into the water, changing their lives forever.

Prologue, Chapter 2 Summary

Recalling the lifeguard rules, Marcie resisted the urge to dive in after David and called 911. David remained underwater for more than a minute as passersby recorded the scene on their phones.

Prologue, Chapter 3 Summary

When a rescue helicopter arrived, David clung to its ladder with one hand, holding the SUV’s driver above water with the other. Police officers hauled David and the driver onto a rescue boat.
