About this audiobook

The author of the #1 New York Times bestseller and global phenomenon The Girl on the Train returns with Into the Water, her addictive new novel of psychological suspense.

A single mother turns up dead at the bottom of the river that runs through town. Earlier in the summer, a vulnerable teenage girl met the same fate. They are not the first women lost to these dark waters, but their deaths disturb the river and its history, dredging up secrets long submerged.
 
Left behind is a lonely fifteen-year-old girl. Parentless and friendless, she now finds herself in the care of her mother's sister, a fearful stranger who has been dragged back to the place she deliberately ran from—a place to which she vowed she'd never return.
 
With the same propulsive writing and acute understanding of human instincts that captivated millions of readers around the world in her explosive debut thriller, The Girl on the Train, Paula Hawkins delivers an urgent, twisting, deeply satisfying read that hinges on the deceptiveness of emotion and memory, as well as the devastating ways that the past can reach a long arm into the present.
 
Beware a calm surface—you never know what lies beneath.

This book was a hard start and bit nerve wracking to follow at first, but I'm glad I stuck with it. It helps to take notes as the story jumps from person to person and from one time period to another. Characters are all colorful & fully developed. The story keeps you guessing right down to the very last syllable.

Does anyone else loathe Jules? I'm halfway through and she is absolutely INSUFFERABLE. Most boring character who muses about the most mundane things. Terribly written character. I'm about a quarter of the way through the book, and I'm truly hoping this drivel gets better. I find myself dreading each Jules chapter.
