In Perdido, Alabama, the Caskey family have endured; some face death whilst others welcome new life. Unexpected alliances have formed, bitter conflict divides former friends.

Hardened by years of experience, Miriam, now head of the family business, is relentless in her pursuit of wealth. And when she makes a surprising discovery beneath their lands, it is not just the Caskey family that benefits, but the whole town.

But will this sudden fortune be enough to lay to rest the ghosts of the past? And how long before nature comes to reclaim its debt?

READERS SAY:

‘At this point in the Blackwater saga, I’ve stopped pretending I’m just “reading a series.” I’m living in Perdido, Alabama, breathing its thick, humid air, listening to the Caskeys’ whispered rivalries, and waiting for the river to reveal yet another secret.’

‘A southern soap opera with a creepy twist and I love it.’

‘Dallas/Dynasty in southern gothic creepy style. Brilliant book. Can’t wait to read the last part of this series.’

‘I’m devastated. How am I so attached to these characters?’
