ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Night Swim" by Megan Goldin follows Rachel Krall, a true-crime podcaster, as she covers a controversial rape trial in the small town of Neapolis. Simultaneously, Rachel receives mysterious letters about the decades-old death of Jenny Stills, a local girl. Drawn into both cases, Rachel grapples with themes of justice, truth, and the lasting impact of trauma. The novel explores the complexities of sexual assault, victim-blaming, and the search for answers in a community haunted by its past. Rachel confronts personal and ethical challenges as she investigates both cases, blurring the lines between observer and participant.
