'Drew me straight in and kept me hooked.' Linda Finlay 'Really
touching, a gently gripping mystery.' Kerry Barrett Beneath the
surface lie forgotten secrets... A village destroyed It's the
summer of 1935 and eleven-year-old Stella Walker is preparing to
leave her home forever. Forced to evacuate to make way for a new
reservoir, the village of Brackendale Green will soon be lost. But
before the water has even reached them, a dreadful event threatens
to tear Stella's family apart. An uncovered secret Present day, and
a fierce summer has dried up the lake and revealed the remnants of
the deserted village. Now an old woman, Stella begs her
granddaughter Laura to make the journey she can't. She's sure the
village still holds answers for her but, with only days until the
floodwaters start to rise again, Laura is in a race against time to
solve the mysteries of Stella's almost forgotten past. Haunting and
evocative, The Drowned Village reaches across the decades in an
unforgettable tale of love, loss and family. Readers LOVE The
Drowned Village! 'What an amazing surprise!! After a few pages I

a great book! I couldn't put it down and raced to the end.'
Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars 'McGurl manages to keep the reader
guessing until the very last chapter, at which point this reader
got goosebumps (and again now as I write this), and tears in her
eyes.' Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars 'Very good. Stayed up all night
reading it!' Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars 'This book was amazing!! I
thoroughly enjoyed reading it... I would highly recommend it to
everyone.' Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars
