THE DROWNING HOUSE

Two childhood friends, Melissa and Leo, reconnect through the death of a friend's grandmother. When they arrive at the remote island where they lived as kids, they find their friend missing, and their grief quickly turns to sleuthing. Narrator Mara Wilson keeps the plot moving as the pair slowly uncover dark forces on the island. Wilson expresses their frustration through their occasional sniping. But they know they must unite to find their friend. The plot's minimal number of characters allows Wilson to focus on the two protagonists. This audiobook is for those who like stories that intertwine mystery and the supernatural. M.B. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2024]
