They drowned a town to build a lake. They never told the children they weren't coming back.
Sixty years later, the water is going down.
Cora Ashby comes to Mercy with one suitcase and a photograph of the great-grandmother her family would never speak about: a young teacher on the steps of a schoolhouse, her hand on the shoulder of the smallest of seventeen children. Cora wants one answer. Was Della Ashby a woman who did something terrible, or a woman a terrible thing was done to? The lake is the only thing that knows, and the lake is being drained.
As the reservoir drops, the drowned schoolhouse rises into the air for the first time in sixty years, and the town that buried the truth begins to come apart. A man drowns sitting up, dry, behind a locked door. Children no one can see hum a counting song at the waterline. And out across the flats, a small bell rings to call a class in. They are not angry. They only want to be counted, to be told the truth, and to be let out. And they have decided that Cora, who wears their teacher's face, is the one who will finally come back for them.
Asa Pruett is the golden heir of the family that opened the gates a day early. He should be the last person Cora trusts. He is also the next name on a sixty-year-old roll, and the only one in Mercy willing to burn his own name down to help her end it. To free seventeen children who have waited in the dark since 1961, Cora will have to walk into the flooding school on the worst day, stand where her great-grandmother could not, and choose what she is willing to pay.
Some debts don't get settled at the dam. They get settled at the school.
Wait for Me is the second book in the Drowning Mercy series and can be read on its own: a gothic slasher romance with an enemies-to-lovers slow burn, a small town with a terrible secret, and a love story told in the cold space between a ringing bell and an answer.
Content note: drowning and peril, the deaths of children (in the past), supernatural dread, grief, and scenes of intimacy.

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
