In a series of “Psychological Thriller” publishers “AST” has a new book Paula Hawkins, author of the international bestseller “the Girl on the train”. About the book “the Girl,” you could not hear, but it is a film adaptation with Emily blunt certainly eyes came across. A new novel Hawkins called “still waters” (Into the Water), and he slowly repeats the success of its predecessor. The No. 1 bestseller on the version of the New York Times and Sunday Times, hundreds of thousands of copies sold, the movie rights are already bought by DreamWorks Pictures. Not bad, huh?

Official abstract:

Not so long ago, Nell was left to his sister Jules a strange message, but she did not answer. Now Nelly is dead and Jules is forced to come to his hometown to pick up an orphaned niece. She returns to the place where her youth went, the youth of which would like to forget forever. Her haunting memories of what happened many years ago. She finds confidence in the fact that the sister did not commit suicide but was murdered. But most of all she fears the backwaters, called Deadly — fire, in whose deceptively calm waters killed too many women. And perhaps, she fears nothing… Who knows what lies in the still waters?

Hawkins, a journalist on the main profile at the beginning of his writing career have issued several books under the pseudonym. It was a romantic Comedy, and the Creator of not so very liked, and the sale has not shown itself. But it was enough to go to the dark side, as everything began to spin. Hawkins herself has admitted that romance is not for her; in fact, it’s agent talked her into the “Comedy” experiment with fiction. Another thing – a dark Thriller, prepariruetsya serious topics like domestic violence. Hawkins tried – and almost immediately became famous.
