Date Published: October 7th, 2020

Haunted by his discovery of a beloved neighbor's body floating lifeless in the lake where he's fishing, 16-year-old Benjamin Baum is convinced she was murdered despite her death being deemed an accident.  While those around him tire of his fixation on finding a supposed killer, Ben's alienation leads to drinking and the reader begins to wonder if he's a reliable narrator. The plot takes a shocking twist, revealing the terrifying reality that things are not what they seem—that, beneath a façade of prosperity and contentment, darkness lurks. 

REVIEW

This was a fantastic and ultimately easy read! I had a hard time putting it down. While I could very easily start and stop, I just didn't want to. I was drawn in. 

It was very well thought out in how it was put together. It flowed nicely and had great meaning. 

It's powerful and inspirational, relatable on many levels.
