Synopsis:
Lindsey has been living in the shadow of what ever happened to her sister so many years ago. All of a sudden out of the blue, the lake, the police and the crime scene tape is being played out yet again.
Body parts have been found by some young boys fishing in Doll's Eye Lake! Could it be they are the remains of Jessica (Jessie)? Will her disappearance finally be solved? Can Lindsey finally get out from under the cloud of grief and loss?
This story will have you turning pages and not wanting to put this book down for anything including coffee!
Jessica is a college student who comes home for a visit and her little sister is the last person to see her. It took ten seconds for her to disappear and never be seen again! How can anyone live with that kind of torment? Lindsey was only 6 years old when her sister disappeared. Twenty four years later body parts are coming to the surface.
Now back in the 1990's more than one college girl went missing, so could this be one of those girls or could it really be Jessie?
Back in the day when these girls first were listed as missing, the police did not have enough evidence to charge anyone with a crime. They also didn't have any bodies! No evidence and only a lot of hearsay about some of the professors and young men on campus!
What was going on here?
Well let me tell you, I had to read the book from start to finish in less than four days! My husband was busy cooking, because I was busy reading! He's great though and didn't mind. He's also a great cook, but I digress!
What I'm trying to tell you is that this book, The Lake of Lost Girls, should be on your MUST READ LIST!
It is available for pre-purchase as it is only coming out on November 5th, of this year.
If you have family or friends that love true crime novels, this one is for you!
I am a member of NetGalley (www.netgalley.com) and this book was made available to me for my honest review. The Lake of Lost Girls, does not leave you disappointed as you will engage with the disturbing and quick downfall of a responsible girl who does not cope well with college life . The aftermath of her disappearance leaves her younger sister with emotional scars too. All of this is very understandable and I think in a way relatable.
Bring in a few "shady" characters and you start to see how lost a young person can become when their lives change so quickly. No one gets out of this mystery without being touched by it in some way!
