A riveting story of heroism, heartache, and the power of love to heal all wounds by New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin.

Murphy Shepherd is a man with many secrets. He lives alone on an island, tending the grounds of a church with no parishioners, and he's dedicated his life to rescuing those in peril. But as he mourns the loss of his mentor and friend, Murph himself may be more lost than he realizes.

When he pulls a beautiful woman named Summer out of Florida's Intracoastal Waterway, Murph's mission to lay his mentor to rest at the end of the world takes a dangerous turn. Drawn to Summer, and desperate to find her missing daughter, Murph is pulled deeper and deeper into the dark and dangerous world of modern-day slavery.

With help from some unexpected new friends, including a faithful Labrador he plucks from the ocean and an ex-convict named Clay, Murph must race against the clock to locate the girl before he is consumed by the secrets of his past??and the ghosts who tried to bury them.

With Charles Martin's trademark lyricism and poignant prose, The Water Keeper is at once a tender love story and a heartrending search for freedom.

"Charles Martin fans rejoice, because he's done it again . . . a multilayered story woven together with grace and redemption, and packed tight with tension and achingly real characters." ??Lauren Denton, USA TODAY bestselling author of The Hideaway

    I loved the themes of devoting a life to rescuing vulnerable teenage girls, of friendship, of “the needs of one”, and of books as therapy. Some of the plot twists were a little way out there, however. ( )

    An enjoyable thriller set along the Eastern coast of Florida and the Keys. If there are a few too many coincidences, the plot moves fast and has some religious depth about redemption. ( )

    Another excellent story from this fantastic writer.
    The subject matter is dark and intense human trafficking Specifically young to teenage girls but it is handled very discreetly.

    Lengthy and with unrealistic details of chase and murder-type action, this is nevertheless an interesting and informative read. Sexual slavery, set in Florida along the southeastern coast with a backdrop of a love story. ( )

    Murphy Shepherd is mysterious man living alone on an island tending the grounds of a long ago deserted, slave-built chapel. He’s dedicated his life to saving those in need and have to be found. When he pulls a frantic and beautiful mother out of the ocean, he finds himself embroiled in another desperate search and rescue. ( )
