[Lynne · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fun mystery that is a bit creepy! My mom was talking about a mystery movie she saw when she was young that she never forgot. Come to find out, the movie was Dark Waters! I ordered the book and enjoyed a fun read. Wish some of the other books written by the author were available, but many are out of print and extremely expensive.
