The New York Times bestselling author of the Tradd Street novels returns to the South Carolina Lowcountry with a gripping tale of two sisters haunted by one tragic night...

On the night their mother drowns, sisters Marnie and Diana Maitland discover there is more than one kind of death. There is the death of innocence, of love, and of hope. Each sister harbors a secret about that night-secrets that will erode their lives as they grow into adulthood.

After ten years of silence between the sisters, Marnie is called back to the South Carolina Lowcountry by Diana's ex-husband, Quinn. His young son has returned from a sailing trip with his emotionally unstable mother, and he is refusing to speak. In order to help the traumatized boy, Marnie must reopen old wounds and bring the darkest memories of their past to the surface. And she must confront Diana, before they all go under.

Beautifully written and as lyrical as the tides. The Memory of Water speaks directly to the heart and will linger in yours long after you've read the final page. I loved this book! --National bestselling author Susan Crandall Karen White delivers a powerfully emotional blend of family secrets, Low-country lore, and love in The Memory of Water--who could ask for more? --USA Today bestselling author Barbara Bretton More Praise for New York Times bestselling author Karen White There is a rhythm to the writing of Karen White. It has a pace, a beat, a cadence that is all its own. --The Huffington Post White's dizzying carousel of a plot keeps those pages turning, so much so that the book can [be]--and should be--finished in one afternoon, interrupted only by a glass of sweet iced tea. --Oprah.com White captures the true essence of Charleston by intertwining the sights and smells of the historic town with an enchanting story filled with ghostly spirits, love, and forgiveness...a once-in-a-lifetime series. --Fresh Fiction This is storytelling of the highest order: the kind of book that leaves you both deeply satisfied and aching for more. --Beatriz Williams, New York Times bestselling author of Tiny Little Thing Readers will find White's prose an uplifting experience as she is a truly gifted storyteller. --Las Vegas Review-Journal
