The River Dies Quietly

To resist is dangerous

Jessica Flores, matriarch, internationally recognised model and fierce environmental activist, dies suddenly.

Ten years on, her daughters Claudia and Ariana are living on different continents, struggling to live up to her legacy. But when plans to dam the Yuraqyaku River threaten the Andean valley where their mother was born, they are drawn into a battle to save it and the river at its heart.

But behind the project lies a web of corruption stretching far beyond Peru. And in its wake, a trail of activists who have lost their lives. As Claudia and Ariana are pulled deeper into the fight, they uncover secrets they are unprepared to face, forcing them to question everything they thought they knew about their family and their past.

The River Dies Quietly is a powerful story about corporate greed, the decimation of the natural world, and a family risking it all to save their way of life.
