Specifications
Easter 1919, Perdido, Alabama. The dark and threatening waters of the local river flood the small town. The Caskey family, wealthy landowners, count the wounds of the disaster. Led by the powerful matriarch Mary-Love and her devoted son Oscar, the family must get back on its feet. What they haven’t foreseen, however, is the sudden appearance of Elinor Dammert, a mysterious and alluring young woman with a dark past.
“Gripping, terrifying, simply enormous. McDowell must now be recognized as the greatest writer of his kind in America.” - STEPHEN KING
“A unique saga with the scent of a bygone era, chilling and captivating from the very first page.” Publishers Weekly
“McDowell set for himself a humble yet ambitious goal which remains unchanged over time: to offer his readers pleasure. Blackwater is the ultimate serialized novel.” Le Monde
“The crowning achievement of McDowell’s writing career. A brilliant accomplishment with generous and delightful doses of the supernatural and a gothic atmosphere.” Financial Times
“A mesmerizing fresco of the town of Perdido, that unsettles, frightens, and at the same time transports the readers.” Lire
