3*
The Wicked River is a survivalist thriller with a hint of suspense, like The River Wild crossed with The Hills Have Eyes.
It was well written but a bit long winded and far fetched in my opinion, it has an oppressive atmosphere throughout, speckled with hopelessness but I never really warmed to the characters as Natalie seemed a bit pathetic and Doug had an agenda all his own, plus Mia was very annoying which made me feel that the plot was a little weak and not entirely satisfactory.
It was a decent, solid story but sadly, I never got totally immersed in it.
