About

From the internationally bestselling author of Still Mine comes a "riveting, twisty…stay-up-all-night read" (Karma Brown, bestselling author of In This Moment) about the hunt for a missing mother and son in a town that is drowning in deception-perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell and Shari Lapena.

How do you find the truth in a town full of secrets?



Sally Proulx and her young boy have mysteriously disappeared in the stormy town of High River. Clare O'Dey is hired to track them down, hoping against all odds to find them alive. But High River isn't your typical town. It's a place where women run to-women who want to escape their past for safety and anonymity.



In a town where secrets are crucial to survival, everyone is hiding something. The police clearly have an ulterior motive beyond solving the case. Malcolm Boon, who hired Clare, knows more about her than he reveals. And their benefactor, Helen Haines, is concealing a tragic family history of her own. As the truth surges through High River, Clare must face the very thing she has so desperately been running from, even if it comes at a devastating cost.



"As swift, intense and vengeful as the river it describes, this book is a must-read" (Roz Nay, bestselling author of Our Little Secret). Amy Stuart's fourth novel, A Death at the Party, emerged as a longstanding #1 bestseller. She is the author of three other bestselling novels-Still Mine, Still Water, and Still Here-which have been optioned for television by Lark/NBC Universal. Amy's other love is hockey. She is one of only four women head coaches in the GTHL, the world's largest youth competitive hockey league. She was born in Toronto, where she still lives with her husband and their three sons. They also spend much of their time on Prince Edward Island, where Amy's family is originally from. Find her on X @AmyFStuart. Praise for STILL WATER



"Torontonian Amy Stuart's debut novel, Still Mine, was highly promising. Still Water brings back the same characters in a new setting and proves that Stuart is no one-book author. Still Water is even better than her debut."

- THE GLOBE AND MAIL "Riveting, twisty and full of tangled secrets…. A stay-up-all-night read. Impossible to put down!"

- KARMA BROWN, bestselling author of In This Moment "Instantly captivating, mysterious and relevant-Amy Stuart has done it again!"

- MARISSA STAPLEY, author of Things to Do When It's Raining "The tension in this book is sharp enough to cut. A pervasive sense of dread and danger flows through Still Water as Clare struggles to unravel both the secrets in front of her and the ones she thought she left behind. If you liked Still Mine, you'll love Still Water."

- TYRELL JOHNSON, bestselling author of The Wolves of Winter "As swift, intense, and vengeful as the river it describes, this book is a must-read. Secrets swirl in the deep of Still Water, Stuart's gripping new thriller of loss and refuge. With a gallery of characters on the run, the pages beat and churn like an aching heart."

- ROZ NAY, bestselling author of Our Little Secret "Complex characters with gut-wrenching backstories propel this twisty mystery toward its shocking conclusion. I was engrossed!"

- ROBYN HARDING, bestselling author of The Party "Utterly compelling and intriguing, Still Water is a very clever whodunit with a most appealingly vulnerable protagonist. My husband thought I was ignoring him while I was reading this book. I wasn't. I just forgot he existed because I was so engrossed. Warn your families before you pick up this book."

- LIZ NUGENT, bestselling author of Unraveling Oliver "Her prose is rich and descriptive, building suspense and creating a moody atmosphere."

- QUILL AND QUIRE Praise for STILL MINE



"An impressive debut, rooted in character rather than trope, in fundamental understanding rather than rote puzzle-solving."
