Cat Hellison. The Girls Who Go Below. (Fantasy and Science Fiction, July/August 2014)

A story that starts out with the gentle feel of A Picnic at Hanging Rock, as two young sisters spend idyllic hours at a local lake. When a young boy appears, the young sister worries that he may drive a wedge between the two.

There are dark doings, but as by whom to whom, I will not divulge. But the lake isn’t the only one with deep, dark depths.
