Summary

Eight years ago, the river rose and never fully went back down.

In Sorrow Bend, Missouri, the flood changed everything.

A third of the town now sits underwater, its rooftops visible from the ridge above the permanent waterline. The people who stayed have learned to live with it.

Del Crace is one of them.

He runs the Tuesday market in the old Walmart parking lot, keeps the books for the vendors, and maintains a quiet life in the house he nearly abandoned the night the river crested.

Then Ruth Cane returns.

She left Sorrow Bend the morning after the flood. Now, eight years later, she’s back for two weeks to sell the rental house she never really lived in.

But a town like Sorrow Bend doesn’t forget its history — or the people who share it.

As Del helps Ruth repair the house on Pell Street, the past begins to surface: the day the river rose, the moment Del almost drove away, and the quiet twenty minutes that changed both of their lives.

Low Water is a reflective, character-driven novel about memory, staying, and the powerful pull of the places we once called home.
