Discover the utterly addictive southern gothic horror saga that is sweeping Europe, with over two million copies sold so far. 'Riveting, terrifying, and just absolutely great' − Stephen King

The second book in the gothic horror phenomenon that is sweeping across Europe, with over one million copies sold.

'RIVETING, TERRIFYING...JUST ABSOLUTELY GREAT' − STEPHEN KING

Perdido, Alabama, has scarcely recovered from the floods that devastated the community. Now, a scheme to build a levee is dogged by a series of mysterious events: unpredictable currents in the river and worrying disappearances. Meanwhile, in the Caskey family, Marie-Love, the matriarch, continues her machinations against Elinor, her strange daughter-in-law. Plots, unholy alliances, sacrifices − in the struggle between them, nothing is off limits. In Perdido, the changes will be profound; the consequences irreversible.

The Blackwater Series titles have sold over one million copies.
