Into the Water

Into the Water, the captivating new psychological thriller book from the #1 New York Times bestseller and international sensation The Girl on the Train's author, is her comeback.

At the bottom of the river that passes through the town, a single mother is discovered dead. A vulnerable adolescent girl suffered the same fate earlier in the summer. Although these ladies are not the first to perish in these murky waters, their passing unsettles the river and its past by unearthing long-forgotten mysteries.

A lonely fifteen-year-old girl is left behind. Her mother's sister, a scared stranger who has been brought back to the place she said she would never go back to, is now caring for her since she is without parents and friends.

Paula Hawkins delivers a compelling, twisting, and incredibly satisfying read that centres on the devastating ways that the past can reach a long arm into the present, as well as the deceitfulness of emotion and memory. Her writing style is the same compelling prose that captivated millions of readers worldwide in her explosive debut thriller, The Girl on the Train.

A quiet surface should be avoided as you never know what's underneath.
