"A powerful story . . . one hell of a fascinating ride." —National Geographic Adventure
I killed and buried my best friend today . . .
When authorities found Raffi Kodikian—barely alive—four days after he and his friend David Coughlin became lost in Rattlesnake Canyon, they made a grim and shocking discovery. Kodikian freely admitted that he had stabbed Coughlin twice in the heart. Had there been a darker motive than mercy? And how could anyone, under any circumstances, kill his best friend?
Armed with the journal Kodikian and Coughlin carried into Rattlesnake Canyon, Jason Kersten re-creates in riveting detail those fateful days that led to the killing in an infamously unforgiving wilderness.
"Wholly absorbing." —New York Times Book Review
