Book 29: At the Water's Edge by Sara Gruen


A historical novel by the author of Water for Elephants (which I very much enjoyed), this one set during the later years of WWII at a remote village in Scotland, on the shores of Loch Ness. A spoiled society couple and their friend travel to the village to search for the Loch Ness monster, for a variety of reasons, but of course the book isn't about that - it's about people and relationships and the monsters that walk on land.  Very compelling. I picked this up because the book I was reading wasn't really grabbing me (though I'm going to give it another shot) and then couldn't put this one down.
