As she explores Ned’s past, she learns of the tragic fate of Clara, Ned’s lover.
But now that Michelle knows what haunts Ned, can she help free him, and herself at the same time?
Sometimes, the key to unlocking a happier future lies in the dark waters of the past…
Dark Waters is a haunting novel about learning to set yourself free from the sins of the past.
