Carl wakes up next to his drowned brother. What happened in the water? He can't remember. He sets out to discover the truth, but when the memories begin to flood back, he wishes he hadn't.  And when he glimpses A beautiful girl he thinks he recognises, she runs away.  Suddenly he knows he must find her - because together they must face the truth before it drowns them. This will stick in your mind long after you've read the last page.

reader reviews

In addition to our Lovereading expert opinion for The Drowning a small number of teenagers were lucky enough to be invited to review this title. Here's a taster....'I finished this book the day I got it partly because it captured my imagination and partly because I had real empathy for each one of the characters.....I absolutely love this book and I really think this is a great book for adults as well as children.'
