A mothers secret past and her daughters present collide in this richly atmospheric novel from the acclaimed author of The Animals at Lockwood Manor.In the summer of 1973, Ruth and her four friends were obsessed with preRaphaelite paintingsand a little bit obsessed with each other. Drawn to the cold depths of the river by Ruths house, the girls pretend to be the drowning Ophelia, with increasingly elaborate tableaus. But by the end of that fateful summer, real tragedy finds them along the banks.Twentyfour years later, Ruth returns to the suffocating, once grand house she grew up in, the mother of young twins and seventeenyearold Maeve. Joining the family in the country is Stuart, Ruths childhood friend, who is quietly insinuating himself into their lives and gives Maeve the attention she longs for. She is recently in remission, unsure of her place in the world now that she is cancerfree. Her parents just want her to be an ordinary teenage girl. But what teenage girl is ordinary?Alternating between the two fateful summers, The Ophelia Girls is a suspensefilled exploration of mothers and daughters, illicit desire, and the perils and power of being a young woman.
