Summary:

"Bobby thought a trip down the Cass River with his three best friends sounded like a great idea. With a four-day fall break during the Halloween weekend, they were looking for an exciting adventure. Just weeks earlier, their science teacher, Mr. Hill, had shown their class pictures of a great northern pike with razor-sharp teeth and a head like a tank. These huge fish left their deep hiding spots in the fall to fast before the long, cold winter. The pike captures the boys' hearts, and they want to experience catching a "River King." As the trip came closer, one thought started to haunt Bobby. Am I brave enough to spend tow nights on a raft without any adults? The river was wild, uncharted water for the boys. Will we be ready for the unkowns and hidden challenges we will face? Before launching their raft int he water to start their adventure, David's dad reminded the boys of a local ghost story. The boys had heard about the legend of Scratchy but laughed it off as a good story designed to scare kids...or was it?"--Back cover.
