Publisher's Summary
A wrenching psychological thriller in the vein of Tana French’s In the Woods, Jon Bassoff’s Beneath Cruel Waters reminds us that the sins of the mothers are the sins of the sons.
Holt Davidson, a Kansas firefighter, hasn’t been back to his hometown of Thompsonville, Colorado, for more than two decades, but when he learns that his estranged mother has taken her own life, he returns for the funeral, hoping to make peace with her memory. He spends the night at his childhood home, rummaging through each room, exploring the past. But instead of nostalgic souvenirs, he discovers a gun, a love letter, and a Polaroid photograph of a man lying in his own blood.
Who is the dead man? Was his mother the one who killed him, and, if so, why? Who sent the love letter? And what role did his sister, institutionalized since she was a teenager, play in this act of violence? As his own traumatic memories begin to resurface, Holt begins an investigation into his mother’s and sister’s pasts—as well as his own.

creepy, disturbing, well written!
Not sure I could listen to this story again. It was so well written that it scared me.

Unexpectedly good read
When I started listening, I honestly nearly stopped because it seemed a bit cliche and I didn't really like the voice either. I continued to listen anyway and found it a surprisingly good read. In the end the readers voice was spot on for the story. The story it self is pretty dark but captivating at the same time.

Chauvinistic garbage
I listened for about half an hour. So tired of books written by men that denigrate women and use casual sexual violence.
