Description
A missing-persons case turns deadly when influencers enter the Louisiana bayou in this thriller from the Edgar Award-nominated author of On a Quiet Street.
Some disappearances are tragedies. Others are warnings.
Macy and Ethan built their careers pursuing the unknown, turning their YouTube channel, Ghost Patrol, into a viral sensation as they investigated the paranormal. But when they wade into the murky depths of the Louisiana bayou-looking into the disappearances of two local women-alongside team members Tasha and Max, their latest case takes a lethal turn.
What begins as a routine hunt for answers quickly spirals into something far more sinister. Shadows move where they shouldn't. Secrets surface where none should exist. And when Macy stumbles upon a horrifying truth, she realizes they were never just chasing a story; they were lured here for a reason. As the swamp closes in and the line between hunter and hunted blurs, one thing becomes terrifyingly clear: some secrets are better left buried.
Blending slow-burn suspense with sharp twists in a masterclass of psychological tension, bestselling author Seraphina Nova Glass's The Swamps is a chilling mystery that's perfect for fans of None of This Is True by Lisa Jewell and Beneath Devil's Bridge by Loreth Anne White.
