Aprašymas

A dead girl in the marshes. A town half-drowned in secrets.

'A gifted storyteller' Maggie Shipstead

'Everything I want in a book ... with the perfect conclusion I never saw coming' Stacey Willingham

Kate never wanted to return to her father's house in the Carolina marshes, but when she finds herself divorced with her writing career on a downswing, home seems like the best place to lick her wounds.

Then a girl is found murdered in an old duck blind - a hunting shelter - and while the town is stunned by the violence, Kate becomes fixated in a way she can't quite understand.

Maybe it's just that the girl reminds her of herself at that age, made reckless by heartbreak. Or it's in her DNA as the daughter of the town's detective. Or she's a novelist frustrated by a story without a real ending.

But as the echoes between the case and Kate's own life intensify, as the hometown ghosts creep up out of the reeds, she's forced to confront a version of herself she thought she'd left behind.

Deeply atmospheric, this is at once a gripping murder mystery and a powerful examination of trauma, family ties and the inescapable work of coming to terms with the past.
