The part with the fish lady doesn't fit, but everything else sounds like "The Forgotten Door" by Alexander Key.
I remember reading this rather weird kids book way back in 2005/06. It's about this boy who apparently is very special and has to be returned to his long lost parents. Some weird creatures have to help him get back as there are a lot of 'forces' [I don't know exactly who] who are trying to kill him. Now this next part I remember really well : So there's this quiet old lady knitting something by a fish pool. You know she's evil when she silently stabs one of the fish with her needle. I really hope it's part of the same book. Oh, and at the end, the boy instantly recognizes his parents and runs so quickly towards them, his feet barely touch the ground. I, as a kid, had tried running in such a manner because of this.
