‘Wow, let me catch my breath, what a wild ride this book was. I started reading it one evening thinking I’ll read a few chapters then sleep but nope. I devoured around 65% of the book in the evening and I had to wake up early so I could finish it.’ Katie’s Book Cave, 5 stars
‘I will never forget the night I drowned…’
Seventeen-year-old Eleanor Parker wakes up cold and alone in the river that twists through her quiet village. She remembers a hand on her chest, another on her head, water in her throat, those final gasps for air…
Her brother’s girlfriend was drowned in the same river the summer before, held under the water by an unknown killer.
Determined to unlock the mystery of what really happened that night, Eleanor can't escape the feeling that something terrible links her to the previous summer's murder. But will she discover the shocking truth, before it’s too late?
A gripping and extraordinary coming of age novel that will keep you guessing until the very end.
