In the hottest summer on record, Iron Lake reservoir is emptying, revealing secrets that were intended to stay hidden beneath the water.

Best-selling horror writer Chris Lassiter struggles for inspiration and he's close to never writing again. His life has become an endless loop of nothing but empty pages, personal appearances, and a marketing machine that is systematically destroying his muse. In a desperate attempt to force Chris to complete unfinished manuscripts his agent buys a remote cabin. All Chris has to do is hide away and write, but he's lost his muse, and not even he can make stories appear from thin air.

Sawyer Wiseman left town for Chicago, chasing the excitement and potential of being a big city cop, rising the ranks, and making his mark. A case gone horribly wrong draws him back to Lancaster Falls. Working for the tiny police department in the town he'd been running from, digging into cold cases and police corruption, he spends his day's healing, and his nights hoping the nightmares of his last case leave him alone.

Contains mature themes.

The principal characters are well developed and it's an interesting story. nothing is over dramatised. well worth listening too. I am looking forward the the next book. I have an idea who the killer might be but all is still to be revealed

excellent plot delivered well

I read this book and loved it. Less romance ( although there’s plenty of that) and all cold case murder mystery.
Add in Sean Crisden’s excellent narrative and it becomes a compulsive listen. Loved it!

Fabulous murder mystery

I’m hooked!
I can’t wait for the next book in this trilling mystery.
Sean Crisden narrates both characters expertly and adds to the emotions and tension.
A great addition to my library.

Great Start to This New Trilogy

4.5 rounded to 5. What a great mystery this book has set up, I love a bit of a murder mystery/cross romance.
And Sean Crisden’s voice in this was just beautiful, it’s really well read, I could listen to him all day.
This is quite a little bit of a slow burn but it’s slower burn to high heat - almost insta love.
However I really am intrigued by both characters, we have a writer with writers block and a cop with past trauma. We’ve definitely only scratched the surface of their characters in this first book and I can’t wait for them to get more open in the next, at least I’m hoping we get that.
As for the bones found right at the start, and the centre point on this mystery I have theories but I’m usually wrong about these things, there is a twist coming I’m sure. My suspect list has 3/4 currently.
Can’t wait to pick up the rest.

What a great start to a trilogy.
