Fight to survive . . . or die. That’s the choice seven friends must face when their getaway romp on the Allagash turns into a disaster. In this gripping tale of adventure, love, and betrayal, three women must face raging white water and a marauding bear. The led must become the leaders to rescue the men they love . . . and survive the man they hate.   Whitewater Opera - it's a canoe ride into your own soul. What would you have done?    Dr. Jack O'Mara has spent much of his adult life as a teacher, coach, principal, and superintendent of schools in Maine. He loved raising three children on a small farm in Jefferson, Maine, especially watching them chase chickens or drive their clunky old tractor through the back fields. Like several of the characters in Whitewater Opera, he is passionate about two things—fly fishing and educating children. He has been an elementary principal on the Massachusetts North Shore for almost ten years and has been in education for over 40.  With his wife Anne, he shares time between their two favorite spots—Damariscotta Lake in Jefferson, Maine and on the Ipswich River on the North Shore where they boat, fly fish for stripers, and watch the lobstermen haul their traps.
