The House Across the Lake

The House Across the Lake - Riley Sager

my review : ✮✮✮✮

This book is bat shit crazy. Riley Sager’s story will stump even the most seasoned thriller reader. The equivalent of the campfire ghost story and the perfect companion for your next trip to the lake.

The House Across the Lake is an eerie tale set on a remote lake in Vermont. Casey Fletcher, a recently widowed actress, has retreated to her lake house for a desperately needed break from her life in NYC. Armed with a pair of binoculars and MANY bottles of liquor, she spends her day watching Tom and Katherine, the glamorous couple across the lake. One day, Casey saves Katherine from drowning, and the two strike up a friendship. The more they get to know each other, Casey feels Katherine and Tom’s marriage is not as perfect as it appears. When Katherine suddenly vanishes, Casey becomes consumed with finding out what happened to her…

A bit repetitive at times but overall enthralling and addicting. To me, it was everything I wanted in an eerie thriller.

Have you read it? What do you think? There is no way you saw that twist coming, right?!

you’ll love this book if you love:

  • The perfect summer thriller that will give you chills even on the hottest days

  • Spooky stories around the campfire
