It is so refreshing to read a book that the storyline is so unlike any others that you have read.It was fast paced throughout and kept you wanting to read on. The story centres on Paige and other people that are involved in her life. Can she find out what happened to her before it's too late. People she trusted are not who so thinks they are and time is running out for her to fin the truth beofre it's too late.
I highly recommend this book.

This book is awesome!
A child's story that was meant to scare them to behave all the time actually happens!
In the child's story, if you listen closely you can hear the dead calling out for you in the waters.
A lady was killed 19 years ago comes back to life for revenge against the one who killed her.

Liked the story, about a woman who has a break down in her relationship, left with nothing. But one night she finds herself dead, how can this be? Who killed her? Who can she trust? Paige needs to find her killer as more and more people fall victim, beatings, stalking and murder. Give this book a chance, if you overlook the mistakes you might enjoy it.

A suspenseful paranormal read

Was this review helpful?

Paige has heard a legend told to her by her brother about the water voices. When you die the voices of the ocean call for you. As a child this embellished story always scared her.
Now as a grown woman she is an atheist. Not believing in a higher power.
Paige's best friend is Tanya. Tanya has been hiding something from Paige but she can't figure out what it is.
Paige has become a new aunt. Her brother Robin and his wife Gwen have had a baby girl. They named her Jane.
Paige is on her own now, having been bamboozled by her boyfriend. He cleared out the bank accounts, mortgages the house they live in to the hilt, then put it all in her name. She is drowning in his debt.
Helen is the new lady that started working at the same place as Paige and Tanya. Every one finds her a little odd. It's hard to put a finger on what it is about her, but it seems like she's hiding something.
Helen, Paige, Gwen and Tanya have all been brought together for a reason. They each have a role to.play in this paranormal mystery of who done it, and why. It's a discovery of truth and lies. We find that words do hurt and can carry long term mental problems. Ultimately we find that good and evil does exist. This is their story.
Riveting, suspenseful all the way to the end!

The Water Voices is full of interesting characters and a mystery that is so good, that I wasn't able to put the book down. Paige's hunt for her own murder is the things nightmares are made of.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review this book.

This was a paranormal thriller set around the lives of Paige and Tanya.

It was a really good thriller, with an array of violent exes, past vendettas, and sociopathic characters.

The book starts with Paige coming to on the beach having been pushed from the cliff. She is sat next to her own dead body. As she returns home she is confused as to how she can be alive and dead at the same time. This theme isn't touched on again until the end of the book - and is the only paranormal bit of the story. This isn't really explained in any great detail.

Without the paranormal element (which you can ignore anyway) this was a great thriller, with lots of twists and turns which throw you off the scent. There were lots of interesting characters, some of which were quite sinister and goes to show you don't always know who you are dealing with.

This was the perfect book to read in the winter time surround by the rocky mountain sow. I love thriller and horror and this book was not short of any of that. I found myself intrigued as well as scared. I love the way this book gripped me from the very start. I am interested to read more from this author.

This was an interesting book. Aside from the first paragraph the first half of the book is set in the past so I couldn't figure out where the whole back from the dead story line was going to fit in. Then I thought I had the twist figured out and then I was like ok this book is good I like what he's doing. Turns out I actually had no clue what was going on. Kevin threw in a bunch of twists in the second half that were completely out of left field. In order to give this book a fair rating I needed to over look a ton of spelling and grammar errors which I hope will be fixed before the finished copy comes out. Other than those it was a great read.

Well this one surprised me!!! I'll admit I wasnt expecting much from this but I guess I got that wrong! Great paced plot and excellent characters. And genuinely creeped me out in parts.... and that's saying something as I'm not easily spooked.

Congratulations to the author! And many thanks to netgalley for sending me the ARC in exchange for my review

This book has been a really good read!

Paige the main character finds herself dead at the bottom of a cliff and she’s racing against time to find out who did it and how she ended up there!

Its exciting to read and be a part of her journey to find out what really happened to her. There are a number of characters in the book who we get to learn about and which one could it be... if any? Not everyone is what they seem...

The authors descriptions of the places and the water voices is brilliant, and the concept and idea of the Water Voices is truely incredible, however my only thing I struggled with was the jumping between characters and different years, I found it a little confusing and hard to keep up with and found myself wondering who I was reading about as it jumps quite a lot and is all written in 1st person.

However I kept finding myself coming back as I was so invested in this book and really wanted to find out what happened!

There are some shocking yet exciting and unpredictable twists which I really enjoyed!

Overall a really good read, nothing like i have ever read before!

Review for 'The Water Voices' by Kevin Grover

Read and reviewed via NetGalley for Chell Reads Publishing

This is the first book I have read by this author and I would be interested in reading more of his work as he develops.

The plot is very unique and compelling. However, it did confuse me at the start and I wasn't sure I agreed with the fact there was a dead body and her being an alive ghost people can see. I believed it should have been no body or a body and her not being able to be seen. However, I understand why it had to be done this way.

I enjoyed reading this book and found it quite fast paced with lots of red herrings as well as crime, friendship, mystery, twists and turns, suspense, murder, tension and the paranormal.

THE descriptions were fantastic. However, there were quite a few grammatical errors. This was an ARC Copy so may have been resolved in the finished publication.

THE characters were all very strong and I found some of them very interesting. It goes to show you can't always trust what you believe.

Overall, I would recommend this book to fans of the paranormal, murder, crime, mystery, suspense, thrillers and young adults (13 plus).

Rated 4/5 (I enjoyed it) on Goodreads and Amazon (UK and. Com) and over 30 Facebook pages

Free on kindle unlimited or £1.99 to purchase. I think this is a good price for this novel.

248 pages

A great story not like most out there, creepy good mystery/thriller. It keeps you wanting to read more face paced with a great ending.

I loved this thriller since I began to read it! It's perfect for thriller and horror lovers even if they don't read that much these type of books. Honestly I couldn't wait to finish so I decided to read it separately from my ongoing books ( I am the type of person that reads 9 books at the same time)' but with this one was different. I felt like I was part of that plot with thrilling experiences and weird happened things.

This book was interesting thriller for me.  I think the characters were easy to follow I felt a little lost in the beginning of the book, though.  Die and come back to try to find out what happened, not a bad idea for a book.   It was an exciting read.  *This book was given to me for free at my request from NetGalley and I provided this voluntary review.*
