The Girl Who Stopped Swimming by Joshilyn Jackson
Adult Fiction Shelves – Main Level – JACKSON
Laurel’s life seems perfect until the ghost of her pre-teen daughter’s best friend comes to her in the night. Molly shows her to the backyard pool, where her body floats face down. How can little Molly be dead? Who did this to her? Shelby, Laurel’s daughter, might know more than she’s saying. Their family friend Bet may know more, too. Bet is from the impoverished town of DeLop, where Laurel’s family secrets lie. Then there is Thalia, Laurel’s difficult sister, who is summoned to help her figure it all out. This book is filled with subplots: sisterhood, friendship, loyalty, family secrets, and appearances. Joshilyn Jackson is an amazing author who just keeps getting better!
