When a twelve-year-old girl drowns in the Tamassee River and her body is trapped in a deep eddy, the people of the small South Carolina town that bears the river's name are thrown into the national spotlight. The girl's parents want to attempt to rescue the body, but environmentalists are convinced doing so would cause permanent damage to the river. Soon, Maggie Glenn, a former resident and newspaper photographer, finds herself torn between the two sides.
