The #1 New York Times-bestselling author Paula Hawkins returns with Into the Water, her addictive new novel of psychological suspense about the slipperiness of the truth and a family drowning in secrets.
Beware a calm surface: you never know what lies beneath. With the same propulsion that captivated millions of readers worldwide in her debut thriller The Girl on the Train, Paula Hawkins unfurls a gripping, twisting, layered story, set in a small riverside town. When a single mother and a teenage girl each turn up dead at the bottom of the river, just weeks apart, the ensuing investigation dredges up a complicated history. Like The Girl on the Train, Hawkins's new novel Into the Water hinges on a powerful understanding of human instincts and the damage they can inflict.

“Contains just as many hair-raising plot twists as [The Girl on the Train]. This time, Hawkins’ absorbing and chilling cast of mothers, daughters, and sisters grapples with the implications of memory, exploring what happens when our conflicting recollections of personal histories collide to destroy the present.”
— Harper’s Bazaar
“A captivating contemporary whodunit… suspense churns and the plot keeps you guessing.”
— People"[A] succulent new mystery…Hawkins, influenced by Hitchcock, has a cinematic eye and an ear for eerie, evocative language…So do dive in. The payoff is a socko ending. And a noirish beach read that might make you think twice about dipping a toe in those dark, chilly waters.”
— USA Today“Highly suspenseful…all these intrigues are teased out with impressive skill.”
— Wall Street Journal“Five narrators tell the story from the points of view of more than fifteen characters. Each character’s voice is unique…A curious mystery that listeners will find intriguing.”
