The Last Echo of Summer Nights
A Thriller

About this book:

She came to Blackwood Lake for silence. She found a ghost instead.

When Elena Vance inherits her grandfather's crumbling cabin after her mother's passing, she expects nothing more than a quiet retreat from a life that's left her bruised. But the mist-shrouded lake has other plans. On her first morning, she finds an empty rowboat drifting near the condemned dam—and snagged on the rusted iron, a piece of modern fabric bearing the name *S. Miller*. Sarah Miller vanished from these very shores twenty-eight years ago, presumed drowned or runaway, her body never found. Now, someone is leaving fresh footprints in the mud, and the lake is beginning to give up its dead.

*The Last Echo of Summer Nights* is a haunting, atmospheric thriller perfect for fans of *Sharp Objects* and *The Lake House*. As Elena digs through her mother's hidden diary and her grandfather's secret journal, she uncovers a family conspiracy that has festered for decades—a truth her own mother called too dangerous to speak. But the past isn't staying buried, and someone on the lake wants the answers found. With each chapter pulling you deeper into the murky waters of memory and betrayal, this gripping novel will keep you turning pages long into the night. The only question is: when the truth finally surfaces, will it save Elena—or drown her?
