Books like The river of souls by Robert R. McCammon


In the year 1703, Matthew Corbett, a seasoned problem‑solver, takes on an unusual commission: escorting a young woman to a Carolina ball. The assignment turns dark when a sixteen‑year‑old plantation girl is murdered, and a runaway slave is suspected. Intrigued by inconsistencies and motivated by a sense of justice, Corbett joins the hunt for the escaped fugitives, following them up the treacherous Solstice River—also called the River of Souls. Along the way he faces deadly snakes, alligators, exiled natives, mythical creatures, and human treachery. The journey tests Corbett’s endurance and forces him to confront both his past and the forces that shape his destiny.
