The Drowned Ones: Some knocks should never be answered

By Robert Palmer

On the mist-shrouded waters of the Norfolk Broads, silence is never empty.

When Daniel retreats to a riverside cottage, hoping for peace and solitude, he finds the marshes and waterways whispering with old griefs. Footsteps follow him in the fog. Bare prints appear at his door. And a child's voice calls him by a name he thought he'd buried with the past.

As the nights deepen and the knocking grows louder, Daniel is pulled toward the drowned secrets of the Broads - secrets tied to a summer long ago, and a boy who never came home. But the river does not simply remember the lost. It keeps them. And it may not let him leave until he joins them.

The Drowned Ones is a chilling ghost story steeped in atmosphere, guilt, and the inexorable pull of water. Perfect for readers who enjoy slow-burn dread, haunted landscapes, and endings that linger long after the last page.
