In the Press
Adam Godfrey’s BODY OF WATER grips like a vise. Mystery piles on mystery. Horrors upon horrors. When you think the story is going one way, it veers another, keeping you unsettled and unable to put the story down. Written with an aching level of sympathy and pathos, while tackling what it means to survive trauma and grief, this is far more than a simple tale of watery monsters in the night. It is a tour-de-force about what it means to be human in the face of tragedy.
In Body of Water, Adam Godfrey traps you inside a compulsive, claustrophobic tale that tackles grief and the impossible choices we can be forced to make for family. It’s also the best reason to stay out of the water since Jaws.
Godfrey’s writing is moving, frightening, and cinematic with character and tension-building moments sprinkled throughout. He knows exactly how to tell an excellent and terrifying story.
