The villagers have spun a dark mythos from these tragedies, and the water has earned its name: the Drowning Pool. Others, going back to the 1600s, have been dragged into the water, bound and alone, by superstitious hooligans trying to find out if the suspected witch will sink or float. Many women have plunged from the steep cliff above - not always by their own hand. But the beach and swimming hole hold a history of tragedies. In a centuries-old northern English village, a meandering river takes a lazy turn and the water collects in a swimming inlet that has lured bathers forever. “Into the Water” captures all the suspense and terrifying emotions of the first, but it beams with a maturity in writing and in storytelling that will draw her fans right back over the edge. Paula Hawkins’ debut thriller, “The Girl on the Train,” was an international sensation two years ago, selling more than 20 million copies, and critics and fans have eagerly anticipated her next work.
