Trulee lives in Mount Orange, Florida where the murder of two best friends took place 20 years ago. The town has now become a tourist attraction where podcasters and crime junkies come to fulfill their morbid curiosity with solving the murders. Trulee has just graduated high school and is looking at the rest of her life mapped out by what everyone expects from her. She has an amazing boyfriend but something still doesnโt feel right. All her life sheโs dreamed of the murders and she canโt stop feeling connected to them somehow. As a local free diver, Tru only feels at peace when sheโs deep in Hidden Glen Well. One day she meets a girl named Rio, and a dark mystery begins to unfold.
This story had me captivated from the very first line. The whole book is rich with such vivid imagery, I felt like I was a part of the mystery and had full body chills most of the time! I was kept guessing until the very last chapter as to what was going on and who the murderer was. Through all the crazy things going on, we have Trulee coming into herself as a young woman and figuring out how to tell the world who she wants to be.
The way Tru describes free diving is fascinating, and I loved the way she is able to let go all of her worries at the bottom of the spring.

Just like with Dark and Shallow Lies there is certainly a hint of something supernatural going on! ๐ป
I would recommend this novel to all fellow suspense readers! Itโs a story of loss, grief, coming of age, and solving a cold case all at once.
๐ชI would consider this a closed door romance, with pretty much only kissing on page.
