Summary

Three friends with secrets. One luxurious lake house vacation. A killer on the loose.

Lauren, Drew, and Rob go on a relaxing vacation that turns into a nightmare. As Lauren sunbathes by the lake, she sees the man from next door lugging something heavy into a boat. The night before, Lauren thought she heard a woman screaming. What is their rich and famous neighbor hiding?

Women are vanishing in this beautiful corner of Tennessee, full of woods and water. Detective Chris Bailey has his hands full. He’s investigating a drowning from last summer. The woman was never identified. But a pattern is emerging. Another body surfaces. The killer will stop at nothing to stay hidden.

Will Lauren be the next victim? And can she handle the fact both her friends are in love with her?

I found it hard to concentrate on the story as it was hard to differentiate between the characters. I had to rewind several times as I missed crucial points because of this. It was a tough slog to the end.

Narrator was excruciating. It was so difficult to listen to and concentrate on the story because of this. No difference between character voices and conversations weren’t read in a way that indicated when one stopped speaking and another started. Just impossible to listen to.
