On Beulah Height

The story begins with three little girls going missing from a small town called Danby. At the same time as these girls are being searched for by a much younger Andy Dalziel, the whole village of Danby is preparing to be submerged in water as a reservoir is being constructed on the old townsite. We keep slipping back to when the village of Danby was drowned and all the terrible things that happened then (which is 15 years before the setting for this book), and a new horror has occurrred in the present time when another little girl goes missing.

Good mystery tho I had a suspicion of 'whodunnit'before the end. There were times I just wanted the story to move along a bit faster.
