Les aigües fosques i glaçades del riu Blackwater inunden Perdido, un petit poble al sud d’Alabama. Allà, els Caskey, un clan de rics terratinents, intenten fer front als danys causats per la riuada. Liderats per la Mary-Love, l’omnipotent matriarca, i l’Òscar, el seu fill obedient, els Caskey treballen per refer-se i protegir la seva fortuna. Però no compten amb l’aparició de la misteriosa Elinor Dammert. Una jove bonica però molt parca en paraules que només sembla tenir un objectiu: apropar-se als Caskey costi el que costi.

This book is special. I intentionally put off finishing this book because I didn't want it to end. McDowell once said “I am a commercial writer and I'm proud of that. I am writing things to be put in the bookstore next month. I think it is a mistake to try to write for the ages.” It is safe to say that his writing has lasted for the ages even if it was never his intention.
Blackwater chronicles the lives of the Caskey family and those who are in their orbit. Our story begins with Elinor being found in one of the hotel rooms in the flooded town of Perdido, AL.
First published as a serialization you can see where the reader gets a little recap before diving back into the action of the family. Although very heavy on the interpersonal relationships between the family members there are moments where you can see how this story is classified as horror.
Vaya salseo se traen todos o sea estoy LIVING y la Mary Love?? Pfff que MARUJA SOS ES LA MEJOR
