The Drowning Kind by Jennifer McMahon

Creepy and atmospheric, this story is based on a natural spring that's rumored to grant wishes. People come from all over to be healed from crippling injuries or to have their wishes granted, not expecting the heavy price in exchange. And with every drowning, the spring only grows stronger.
Jax and Lexie spent their childhood summers at their grandmother's estate, where a natural spring has been made into a private pool. Lexie always loved the pool and wished to become a stronger swimmer. Later in life she suffers from bipolar manic episodes and it's nothing new for her to call Jax at all hours. When she gets several voice mails from Lexie, each crazier than the last she ignores them only to find out that her sister was found drowned in the pool. She travels to the estate to follow the clues her sister left behind only to find a startling truth about the pool.
I love this author's books and they keep getting better and creepier! I couldn't put this one down and I know this story will be stuck in my nightmares for awhile.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. The views and opinions expressed in this review are completely my own and given voluntarily.
