The Dark Waters of Beckford
The Drowning Pool sits at the heart of Beckford, a small riverside town with a history as deep and treacherous as the waters themselves. For centuries, this seemingly peaceful bend in the river has claimed the lives of "troublesome women" - those who dared to challenge societal norms or simply became inconvenient to those in power. The pool's ominous reputation began during the witch trials of the 1600s, when young Libby Seeton was bound and thrown into the water. Though she sank (supposedly proving her innocence), her accusers weren't satisfied and forced her through a second trial that claimed her life, leaving her "lips the blue of a bruise, and her breath gone for good." Over centuries, the pool evolved from a place of execution to a notorious spot where women either chose to end their lives or were brought to have their lives ended by others. Nel Abbott, a local writer and photographer, became obsessed with documenting these stories in her project "The Drowning Pool." She believed the drowned women left "something of themselves in the water," creating a powerful current that continues to draw "the unlucky, the desperate, the unhappy, the lost." When Nel herself is found dead in the Drowning Pool at the novel's beginning, she becomes the latest link in a centuries-long chain of tragedy, joining teenage Katie Whittaker who had died there just months earlier. Their deaths raise uncomfortable questions: is the pool's dark history truly historical, or do the same forces that claimed "troublesome women" centuries ago continue to operate in modern Beckford?
