Publication: THE BLUE POOL by Siobhan MacDonald

Siobhan MacDonald published her debut thriller TWISTED RIVER earlier this year, and she quickly follows it up with another standalone suspense novel, THE BLUE POOL (Canelo). To wit:

What really happened that weekend?
  Four friends go to a remote cabin one summer. Only three return.
  Life is good for university friends Sarah, Ruth, Charlotte, and Kathy: it’s summer, exams are over, and they’re escaping to a cabin by the Blue Pool. But when Sarah then disappears without a trace, life for the others will never be the same again.
  Twenty-five years later, a man walks into a police station, claiming to know something about the missing girl. Suddenly, the three women – now estranged – all become suspects. Forced to revisit that horrifying weekend, they must confront buried memories and decades-old misgivings. For not everything was as it seemed, and the greater the secret, the deeper it lies…
  From the author of the acclaimed Twisted River, this is another ingenious and unpredictable psychological thriller. A mesmerising exploration of loyalty, friendship, and the corrosive effects of guilt, The Blue Pool will appeal to readers of Clare Mackintosh, Paula Hawkins, and B A Paris.

  THE BLUE POOL was published in e-book format on August 26th. For all the details, clickety-click here …

A River Twists Through It

Siobhan MacDonald (right) will publish her debut, TWISTED RIVER (Exhibit A Books) later this year, the first signing by new Exhibit A editor Byron Quertermous. It’s the first of ‘two gripping, psychological, stand-alone thrillers’ (the second, THE BLUE POOL, will be published in 2015). To wit:

Kate and Mannix O’Brien live with their two children in a quirky house overlooking the Curragower Falls on the Shannon River in Limerick – a city where the haves and have-nots live cheek by jowl.
  On the other side of the Atlantic, on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the Harveys own a fashionable brownstone on Riverside Drive.
  When American Oscar Harvey arrives in Limerick and opens the boot of the car his hosts have loaned him, he finds in it the body of a woman … and from this shocking beginning the story spools back to the roots of the house swap, which no one suspects will end in tragedy.
