A review by kpearljones
The House Across the Lake by Riley Sager

dark mysterious tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

2.25

Slow going for the first 3/4 of the book. Predictable, and irritatingly redundant. But I love Sager’s other works, and I think having read other books of his I had certain expectations of this.
