Losing Holly is the hardest thing Jane has ever had to endure ... until Holly comes back.
Best friends Jane and Holly have jumped off the bluff over their Alabama reservoir hundreds of times. But one day, Holly’s jump goes wrong. Her body never comes up, yet something else does—a sad creature of mud, full of confusion and sorrow. It’s Holly, somehow, trapped and mixed up with the river. And if Jane can’t do something to help, Holly will take everybody down with her—even the people they love the most.
Blending ’s theme of lost friendship with Stephen King’s sense of small-town horror,is a Southern gothic tale of grief, redemption, and the mournful yearning of an anguished soul.
