Summary
In this chilling thriller from the bestselling author of Keep Her Secret, if you don’t take your dark secrets to the grave, maybe they’ll take you there first…
Calvin finally owns the bakery of his dreams, in an idyllic village in the Lake District. After reluctantly following his wife Vicky’s advice to promote it on social media, he’s thrilled when a viral clip makes him a legend overnight. But then the creepy DMs start flooding in—all from a stranger who claims she’s his biggest fan.
Meanwhile, a local recluse is found on a nearby beach, buried to his neck and left to drown, and the community goes into shock. Why would anyone want him dead? And who exactly was he? Detective Imogen Evans, new to the Lake District, is under pressure to find out before the killer strikes again.
As the murder hunt gathers pace, Calvin’s obsessive admirer turns up right on cue after his assistant is injured in an accident, and to Vicky’s horror she’s here to stay. As events begin spiralling into darkness, is there anyone in this quiet backwater Calvin can trust—or have his mistakes already put him, and everyone he loves, in terrible danger?

Not one of the author's best.
I thought there were too many characters in this story and it all became a bit far-fetched.
However I enjoyed parts of it but as with so many audible books why oh why do they have a male narrator trying to speak the female voices, it just sounds ridiculous! I didn't hear any local accents considering most of the characters grew up in the Lake District!!

Ok
The Darkest Water started slowly but gradually the pace did speed up. The story is told two time frames the present day and 1995. There were a lot of characters and I found that confusing at times. I also disliked Calvin, the main character. I did enjoy the inclusion of social media in the story, and the problems it can cause. All in all this was an enjoyable read but it one of my favourites by this author.

Twists and turns !
The narration was clear and easy to recognise each different character. A good listen all round. Recommended.
