Deep Creek is a historical fiction novel written and published in 2010 under the pen name Dana Hand recounting the aftermath of the Hells Canyon Massacre.

Dana Hand is the pen name used by the writing team of William Howarth, professor emeritus at Princeton University, and Anne Matthews, a college lecturer.

[3] The writing team states they "wanted to honor [the slain miners] by getting all the details right [...] Idaho has never faced the moral depravity of that crime: over 30 immigrants tortured, mutilated, and killed in terrible ways.

Dana Hand are writing their next novel, tentatively titled Shadow Falls, set in 1947 Princeton, New Jersey, and featuring descendants from characters in Deep Creek.

"[6] Deep Creek was chosen as one of the ten best novels of the year in 2010 by The Washington Post[7] and nominated for the 2011 Dayton Literary Peace Prize.
