Story
Marcella Middleton has always tried to live a good life, but after losing her job, her boyfriend, and her home, she's tired of playing by the rules. But she has a plan. She's going to trick her way into Carmel and Rufus's home, that sickeningly perfect couple with the amazing, renovated farmhouse they're always boasting about in those glamorous lifestyle magazines. She'll tell them she only wants to stay for a few days, even though she never intends to leave. She has no idea the house is haunted by the ghosts of the past. Or that the couple have a sinister hidden agenda of their own.

Story
From the outside, my life appears normal, boring even – but in that way you treasure when you once had nothing. These days, I have a loving new husband, a polite and intelligent teenage son. Everything seems perfect, but beneath the surface, I feel afraid. My son, the child I’ve sacrificed everything for, is scaring me. When he looks at me, his gaze is dark and calculating. In public he’s as sweet as always, but the things he says to me at home make my neck prickle with fear. I'm a mother – I've learned to trust my instincts, and right now, they're screaming that something is very wrong.

Story
Never question a mother’s intuition. My water isn’t supposed to break while there’s a storm raging, when my husband isn’t on the island, and as the power flickers out. Darkness covers the cabin as I cling to my belly. I never imagined it happening like this. Trained as a midwife, I know I can deliver my daughter.

Publisher's Summary
Note to listener:
Book 1 (Undercurrents) was previously known as The Yorkshire Dipper.
What goes on a serial killer’s mind? And why?
Even the darkest of villains love their mother. Don’t they? This is a trilogy that explores a multitude of family dynamics between siblings, couples and generations, and the far-reaching effects of dysfunctionality between them.
Every behaviour has a drive behind it. No one is born bad. Or are they? The books within this trilogy explore the psychology of the serial killer, whilst also telling the victims’ stories.
But the most obvious victims are not the only victims.
The Dark Water series shines a light on those often overlooked, the perpetrator’s family, left to carry the weight of guilt and shame in the aftermath of someone else’s actions. The same question is repeated on several occasions, how could they not have known?
This trilogy of three dark domestic thrillers pushes the families involved to the limits of all endurance.
Choose The Dark Water series as your next listen to discover not only ‘who dunnit,’ but why….
