In Scavengers, Kathleen Boland delivers a wild adventure through the Utah desert—and straight into the messy heart of a mother-daughter relationship that's been unwinding. When Bea Macon’s career derails, she has no choice but to find her mom in Salt Lake City. Christy, her unreliable, unpredictable mother who’s currently consumed by an online treasure-hunting obsession and convinced she’s about to strike gold and find a million dollars.

What begins as reluctant visit turns into something dangerous, as Christy ropes Bea into a desert mission with a man she met in a chatroom. Bea has always been the one to swoop in and clean up her mother’s chaos—but this time, the consequences may be more than either of them can handle.

Equal parts darkly funny, suspenseful, and emotional. Scavengers is an exploration of loyalty, family, and what we’re willing to risk to prove something to ourselves—or the people who stopped believing in us.
