Into the water is a psychological suspense thriller written by Paula Hawkins published by Transworld Publishers it contains 430 pages.

The book starts with the death of Nel Abbott and her estranged sister is going to take care of her daughter.

This book contains multiple mysteries and keep you totally engrossed with whatever is going to happen next, also it is written in different characters perspective so you would know what that person would be thinking at that particular scene.

Complex relationship and the complexity of the human mind is also a focus of the book.

The story is written in the town of Beckford and lives of all the characters are somehow intermingled making you to suspect each one of them.

The mysteries of the drowning pool and the death of Katie Whittaker and Nel Abbott. This is so interesting that you keep on reading anticipating you don’t even know whom do you want to be the suspect.

The ending is so unpredictable, that leave you speechless.

All in All this book is too good and a must read on my list, the way it is written is one of the plus points, how all the mysteries are unravelled layer by layer is another one, I loved this book and recommend all to read it.
