The House Across the Lake: A Novel

A very good psychological thriller keeping you glued till the end !!!!

the book reached in good condition and very fast, good cover has a nice feel to it

Honestly so so so so good! The trama, the plot twists, the characters. One of my new favorite books! 🤍

El libro vino en perfecto estado, la cubierta y las paginas como nuevas.Aún no lo he leído, pero el autor escribe genial, el nivel de ingles necesario no es muy alto, yo he leído libros del autor sin problema, un B2 esta bien.Em cuanto a la letra pensé que seria más grande pero es perfecta.

Well written page turner but I only gave it three stars due to the twist. The twist towards the end of the book came out of left field and did not fit in with the rest of the story. It ruined the book for me and I felt as though I had wasted my time reading it. Disappointing.

This book kept me glued to it until the very last page and I wanted MORE. So many unexpected pot twists! I saw it described as a thriller version of The Great Gatsby and that’s exactly it. I wish I could read it again for the first time. 10/10

Casey Fletcher is a widow who has been living alone in her family lake house, drowning in alcohol and her grief over her husband's death. Casey passes her day drinking and watching her neighbours with a pair of  binoculars. Casey becomes friendly with her new neighbour, Katherine Royce who lives across the lake. She becomes obsessed by watching Katherine and Tom Royce's picture perfect life and soon realised it was not as perfect as she thought. One night Casey sees something suspicious, and the next day Katherine is missing.Can Casey uncover the mystery behind Katherine's disappearance?This is a psychological suspense thriller. The writing style was creepy, mind blowing with jaw dropping twists and turns. There are trigger warnings like alcoholism, death, kidnapping, gaslighting and mental illness.Although it starts off a little slowly, as it picks up, it will leave you on the edge of your seat. The character buildup was amazing; it made each and every person suspect. Moreover, the ending left me in complete shock.Overall this book was a rollercoaster.
