Genre: Mystery, Thriller
When a kid at the local recreation center dies of an overdose, Detective Maya Morrow adds the case to the long list related to the drug problem plaguing the small New Hampshire coastal town of Newborough. But her investigation gets her much too close to the dangerous players.
Both the Morrows and the Flynns are holding dark secrets, and when their lives collide, tragedy is inevitable.
My Review:
Taking on Water is a fast-paced and intense thriller. I was lured into the dark world of the fishermen and drug runners. Mr. Rawding’s vast experience in the world of commercial fishing shows through in his writing. This novel screams of desperation and survival. I want the poor to thrive, but to what degree? Rawding isn’t afraid for his readers to feel the pain as he leads us into deadly situations. I am excited to read more work by David Rawding. Brutal and shocking. Loved it. Five stars.
