'A List Celebrities Challenge Utahs Whitewater in Will Eastburns Debut Novel
In the spirit of the growing popularity of adventure travel, Will Eastburns debut novel, After the Gate, is based on a group of 'A list celebrities as they face the challenges of the treacherous whitewater in the canyons of Southern Utah. Author Will Eastburn has incorporated his real life experiences to lay the foundation of this entertaining novel.
(PRWEB) February 7, 2005 -- Author Will Eastburn invites adventure lovers to grab their lifejackets and join a group of 'A list celebrities who seek refuge from their hectic lives and the paparazzi at the secluded Hurrah Ranch. After the Gate: A Whitewater Adventure is the tale of these celebs as they float the treacherous rapids of the Oakley River on what should have been an exclusive getaway in the back country of Southern Utah. Unbeknownst to them, a tragic crime in nearby Canyon City jeopardizes their lives as the perpetrator seeks the river for escape. There is no turning back as the serene river transforms into a pulsating vein of terror, rocketing the group into a climactic showdown with a deranged killer.
I have enjoyed sharing stories of my latest mountain biking expeditions on the imposing slick rock trails of Moab, or backcountry skiing in the avalanche-prone Wasatch Mountains with colleagues, family and friends," said Eastburn. Writing After the Gate has allowed me to share my stories on a fictionalized level with a much larger audience!"
Review by Janice F. Ordway - Educator After the Gate offers a heart-pounding exploration of the human psyche, as it takes you into the realm of white water rafting. The characters are well developed, the descriptions of scenery brilliant, and it gives enough twists and turns to keep you guessing. Each time I thought I knew what would happen, the plot would shift. I could visualize every rock and rapid in the river, almost as if I were along for the ride. I thoroughly enjoyed this thrilling page-turner, and Im anxiously awaiting Will Eastburns next endeavor.
After the Gate has been awarded the iUniverse Editors Choice designation for superior writing and a commitment to excellence.
