Radio Bookclub: The Guide

The August 2021 selection for the Radio Bookclub has been The Guide, a thriller from Denver author Peter Heller. The book, set in Colorado, features Jack, a character we previously met in Heller's book The River. Jack is hired as a fishing guide at Kingfisher Lodge, nestled in a canyon on a mile and a half of the most pristine river water on the planet, known by locals as “Billionaire’s Mile.” But sinister things are happening at the lodge as Jack finds out.
