If there’s one thing this book doesn’t lack, it’s intrigue. I couldn’t put it down and found myself reaching for it every time I had two minutes to spare. Several twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat throughout this story, but the big reveal, unfortunately, was very predictable.
Following this, I was not a fan of the main character, Hazel. Victim of several clichés that left her blind to the clues in her path, I was also not a fan of the way she investigated this mystery. It was messy and lacked any real investigation. Despite its predictability, The Orphanage by the Lake was a good page-turner and an enjoyable read.

In this whirlwind of a book you have Hazel. A private investigator hired to find a missing girl. While she is given an insane deadline to find this girl, she finds herself questioning everything. Who can you trust?
I will say I thought I had the ending figured out, and that this was going to be a predictable thriller I’m happy to say I was wrong! The plot twist at the end really made up for it. However I do feel the ending was rushed. Overall it is a good thriller to pick up as a quick read!
