Book Description

Charlie Ryder, half Native American Indian, had been the lone sentinel protecting his peaceful and remote, Lone Lake and a serene and simple lifestyle until the arrival of the Madison family. And then, he befriended Benjamin Madison, a strange boy about his age, and thirty-two years ago, while battling over one flirtatious girl at a teen bonfire party beside the lake in 1968, a series of events began that would cement their deadly secret. One, two finally eight missing girls over the years, beginning in the late sixties-swallowed up at Lone Lake without a trace, without a single bone fragment, without a clue as to who was removing these young girls from rural New Hampshire. Every one of them, during their final hours, had last been seen at the lake. And then came one curious writer who chose Lone Lake as the place to relax and finish her latest novel. The story she started out with soon became the story that is about to unfold. Never in her life would Janet Travis have thought she was about to be written into her own storyline or imagine what would ultimately be the cost.
