In the last days before her death, Nel called her sister. Jules didn’t pick up the phone, ignoring her plea for help. Now Nel is dead. They say she jumped. And Jules has been dragged back to the one place she hoped she had escaped for good, to care for the teenage girl her sister left behind. But Jules is afraid. So afraid. Of her long-buried memories, of the old Mill House, of knowing that Nel would never have jumped. And most of all she’s afraid of the water, and the place they call the Drowning Pool.

Into The Water is the second book from the best-selling author of “The Girl On The Train.” Again a thriller/mystery novel with a brilliant plot.

The novel has told from the perspective of several characters, to be precise around eleven POVs. I think the author developed this many characters in order to induce more thrilling experience in the readers.

But this counteracts the gripping factor of the story and got it more complicated. I felt exhausted reading all these POVs as well as confused.

Hawkins has included a touch of the supernatural element in it, thumbs up for that. The ending was predictable.

One thing I liked about this book was its plot. The author could have done indeed better because the plot has that potential.

If you are interested in reading books with many POVs and predictable endings, then go for it.
