The Drowning Woman

Review: The Drowning Woman

Whoa, what a ride this one is. Quite possibly a Perfect Thriller. This novel starts out with our protagonist down on her luck, and I mean DOWN on her luck. It's bad. It's also a scenario that is altogether plausible in the world we live in today. Robin Harding draws a pitch perfect examination of homelessness, but before long, we are swept up into new and fresh chaos.

We know this is going to be messy for our protagonist. It just takes a while to see how. One of the bits I really appreciated is that this protagonist is not an idiot and she doesn't make stupid mistakes.

We get two POVs which I love. What was brilliant here is that neither POV... wait, I can't finish that sentence. No spoilers.

Harding peels back the layers not slowly, but masterfully. It's not until the very end that we the reader realize how this will play out. And it is brilliant.

I couldn't put this book down.
Plus I have it in hardback and it is a GORGEOUS cover.
