Eerie, atmospheric and well-written easily describe Ghost
Swim. Brooke paints a definite ghost story here and draws on the reader’s
emotion and senses. Interesting story but unlike many of the other reader reviews,
the ending wasn’t “really” a twist, but it was well derived.
Rachel is a swimmer, at seventeen swimming seems to be her
only opportunity for a scholarship. So, Rachel swims every opportunity she gets
to hone her skills in hopes of making the National Team. One evening, with the
weather unsavory and practice cancelled, Rachel finds herself heading off
to the pool to [practice her swimming, by her mom's encouraging.
It is here the real story and terror begins. Rachel finds
herself alone and very uncomfortable. Something just isn’t right and what
unfolds is a well-described, visual tale of dismay that is sure to haunt the
young adult reader. Well crafted, indeed and is well worth a read. Sara Brooke will be sure to leave an impression - read her well ...
