DARK WATER

Product Information

For an author to be able to engage the reader into the depths of the story to the degree I did, I felt this a genuine skill not many writers can accomplish. Intricately detailed in a casual and entertaining way, this ensured you knew exactly how the scene was playing out and many a time I could sense the salt air and the grimy smell of the unwashed sailors. Not a pleasant sensory but a very necessary one, considering most toilet routines were carried out at the end of the ship and sailors often washed their clothes in their own urine. Mad? I wanted to shout. Aren’t you mad? And you? Aren’t I? We’re all mad. Here we are, piloting a wood-shaving over an abyss. Is there a better definition of madness?”

There are times, as I dine in the great houses of Boston, or get ready to commit another lost soul to the asylum, when I almost sink before the fact - so plain I'm amazed at our conspiracy of silence about it - that we are all hungry, naked, heading towards a death we can't avoid. We are all at sea, sailing over dark water. As a reader of naval historical fiction (e.g. David Donachie), I got very excited by the premise of best selling author Stuart Turton’s latest publication, “The Devil and the Dark Water”.

Dark Water: A Ryan Weller Thriller: Book 1 Kindle Edition

This is best fast paced, twisty, exhilarating historical fiction I’ve read this year and I’m so pleased to recommend it to its genre lovers. Arent and Sara were similarly 'good'. Unlike most other people on the boat they do not approve of the I seem to have found a new weird sub-genre that I love: books set on ships in the early 19th century. This is the third I’ve read in the past year over several different genres, and I’ve really enjoyed them all. Alright, that might be a little exaggerated. It's not hard to see the big picture, because the keywords are really obvious and really frequently brought up. But I'm still worried that I might be projecting too much of my own thoughts onto the author's intentions. Because if the author meant what I thought she meant, then this would be one hell of a depressing read. Together they are trying to work out who among them has been possessed by Old Tom.

So many vendettas and scores to settle, the reader peels the layers of the mystery one by one. The last 1/4 seemed a bit smooshed. Jumbled. Like so many finale ideas thrown together, but it was still agreeable and aptly written and made me do some double takes. Very entertaining, fast read.

Darkwater Cove (Darkwater Cove Psychological Thriller Book 1)

In every life, I now believe, there is one event that is the well-spring of the fundamental agony and decision in us. It lies beneath the sunlit layers of the present moment, throwing its shade across the foundations of our being, forming the self to come. If grasped and brought to the surface, it can save us or destroy us.” Turton also never overwhelms the reader with the intricacy of the plot. His writing has a skillful ease to it and is lovely to read. Ever so gently, he carries the reader along as he slowly reveals the interconnectedness of the mystery’s pieces, leaving not even a ghost of a plot hole. And for fun, he throws in plenty of what I call “mini twists” – small, unexpected surprises that work well to maintain a high level of engagement and interest in the story.In this maritime mystery, our dear doctor Watson became our bodyguard Hayes, a broad-shouldered man who had to solve an impossible mystery and tried to protect our handsome and witty detective Pipps, who was somehow in chains.
