AND THE WATER SHALL CALL THEM HOME A water-borne blight hits a small community on a remote Scottish island. The residents are a mix of island-born and newcomers seeking a slower life away from the modern world; all have their own secrets; some much darker than others. Some claim the illness may be a case of mass hysteria - or even a long-buried curse - but when ferry service fails and phone towers go down; inconvenience grows into nightmarish ordeal as the outwardly harmonious fabric of the community is irreversibly torn apart. Dead Water is an atmospheric; suspenseful tale of folk horror and isolation within a small island community; from the author of A Boy and his Dog at the End of the World - perfect for fans of Midnight Mass and Pine.
