Secrets have a way of floating to the surface.... Mystery, compelling
characters, and an abandoned town beneath a lake make for a compelling
adventure.
On the day Cassie was born, they drowned her town. The mayor flipped a
lever and everyone cheered as Old Lower Grange was submerged beneath
five thousand swimming pools' worth of water. Now, twelve years later,
Cassie feels drawn to the manmade lake and the mysteries it hides--and
she's not the only one. Her classmate Liam, who wears oversized swim
trunks to cover the scars on his legs, joins Cassie in her daily swims
across the off-limits side of the lake. As the summer heats up, the
water drops lower and lower, offering them glimpses of the ghostly town
and uncovering secrets one prominent town figure seems anxious to keep
submerged. But like a swimmer who ventures too far from shore, Cassie
realizes she can't turn back. Can she bring their suspicions to light
before it's too late--and does she dare?
