What the Lake Hides: A Small Town's Darkest Secret

By HUGH T. DUBOIS

A girl walked to the lake. She never walked back.

Twenty years ago, Emma Walsh vanished from the small town of Millbrook. No body. No witness. No justice.

Until now.

Investigative journalist Maya Rivers returns to her hometown to crack the cold case that destroyed her childhood. But the deeper she digs, the darker the secrets get.

A locket at the bottom of the lake. A bicycle chained to a concrete block. A note that says: I saw them. I know who they are. But if I tell, they'll kill me too.

Someone in Millbrook knows the truth.

And they will do anything to keep it buried.
