God's Junk Drawer

In "God’s Junk Drawer," Peter Clines weaves a captivating mystery that begins with the mysterious disappearance of the Gather family during a rafting trip. After five years, Billy Gather re-emerges with an astonishing story about a primordial valley filled with dinosaurs, aliens, Neanderthals, and androids, but is mostly dismissed by the public. Now a professor, Billy—who now goes by Noah Barnes—accidentally leads a group of graduate students into this enigmatic world during what was supposed to be a simple stargazing trip. As they navigate the Valley’s challenges, the group must work together to unravel its secrets and find a way back home.
