The House Across the Lake by Riley Sager

3.0

This is a perfect summer thriller. The lead character was right up my alley and her life gave me a bit of a Carrie Fisher feel. The atmosphere was richly described, and the suspense was thick and constant. That initial twist though….really? I tried to suspend disbelief, and while it was effectively creepy, it just felt out of place. That’s the main reason I’m not giving this 4 stars. Still, a very enjoyable read and worth waiting for on the long library hold list.
