Have you ever wondered how long it takes to dig a grave?

Wonder no longer. Catherine Steadman's enthralling voice shines throughout this spellbinding debut novel. With piercing insight and fascinating twists, Something in the Water challenges the reader to confront the hopes we desperately cling to, the ideals we're tempted to abandon, and the perfect lies we tell ourselves.

At Stonewall Academy, one secret is worth dying for.

Sabrina Griffin seems to have it all—supermodel looks, edgy confidence, astronomical IQ—so no one is prepared when she climbs onto the roof and leaps four stories onto the concrete steps, suffers massive brain damage, and is wheeled away in a vegetative state.

No one is ready when six hours later, her parents prematurely take her off life support.

No one is aware of the clue she planted in her suicide note.

Seeking closure for the death of his high school sweetheart, Jaden and Sabrina’s best friend, Danae, follow a bizarre trail of breadcrumbs to figure out why she jumped. But when the clues begin to link a headmaster’s dark deed, a girl’s self-mutilation, and a stranger who claims to be the real Sabrina Griffin, they realize they’re only seeing the tip of the iceberg of a horrific secret lurking inside the walls of their elite boarding school.

In the middle of the Atlantic, four hundred miles west of Bermuda, the eight thousand passengers and crew aboard the cruise ship MS Cypress vanish into thin air. Everyone—men, women, and children—all gone. Taken.

Everyone except five teenagers.

In an instant, their seven day cruise becomes a nightmare: eighteen decks of haunted hallways, pools and bars completely empty, desserts still half-eaten in the abandoned Royal Promenade. A ghost ship the size of a city, sailing blind. At least their annoying parents are gone.

But now strange things are happening. Satellites are dropping out of orbit, falling from the sky. Satellites…and bigger things. They’re not as alone as they think. A message appears in an ancient language, burned into the carpet in the deck ten elevator lobby. It’s a warning. A monster lurks onboard, hunting them. What they've long suspected appears certain: the vanishing…it was an attack.

Now the most unlikely of friends must confront the shadowy pasts that link them and regain control of a runaway cruise ship, crack a four-thousand-year-old mystery, and wage war on a formless evil…before they too vanish into oblivion.
