By the misty banks of the Río Grande, the legend of the River Walker—a vengeful spirit of local folklore—lives on. Grady Wrenn, a dedicated cultural anthropologist, is drawn into the story while Elena Montalvo, a spiritual healer, has devoted her life to protecting people from the spirit’s wrath.
Together, Grady and Elena must confront not only the supernatural threat but also the deep cultural and personal barriers that separate them. Their alliance becomes a fragile bridge across myth, tradition, and the complexities of a growing bond between two women.
