About the Book

The Lake of Lost Girls

Told in alternating timelines, THE LAKE OF LOST GIRLS is a haunting novel that will thrill fans of ALL GOOD PEOPLE HERE and WE ARE ALL THE SAME IN THE DARK.

Using suspenseful podcast clips to weave a twisty tale of a missing student and her sister who is desperate for answers, THE LAKE OF LOST GIRLS is perfect for fans of I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS FOR YOU.

It’s 1998, and female students are going missing at Southern State University in North Carolina. But freshman Jessica Fadley, once a bright and responsible student, is going through her own struggles. Just as her life seems to be careening dangerously out of control, she suddenly disappears.

Twenty-four years later, Jessica’s sister, Lindsey, is desperately searching for answers and uses the momentum of a new chart-topping true crime podcast that focuses on cold cases to guide her own investigation. Soon, interest reaches fever pitch when the bodies of the long-missing women begin turning up at a local lake, which leads Lindsey down a disturbing road of discovery.

In the present, one sister searches to untangle a complicated web of lies.

In the past, the other descends ever deeper into a darkness that will lead to her ultimate fate.

This propulsive and chilling suspense is a sharp examination of sisterhood and the culture of true crime.
