About this listen

 Alice Morgan thought she could escape her past. Renting a remote cabin by the serene Mirror Lake was supposed to be her fresh start—a quiet retreat where she could focus on writing her memoir and maybe find peace. But the lake has other plans.

From the moment Alice arrives, the whispers start. At first, they’re faint, almost easy to dismiss. But as the nights grow longer, the whispers grow louder. Shadows move in the forest, reflections in the water show things that couldn’t possibly exist, and Alice feels the lake pulling her closer. The more she tries to ignore it, the harder it pulls—tearing at the carefully constructed walls she’s built to protect herself from the past.

The past is where her sister Emma lives—or rather, where Emma died. Alice hasn’t spoken Emma’s name in years, but now the lake refuses to let her forget. Emma’s voice calls to her, reflections of her face haunt the water, and Alice begins to unravel a truth she’s spent her whole life trying to bury. What really happened that summer, on the day Emma disappeared into the water?

Desperate for answers, Alice discovers that she’s not the only one the lake has haunted. Locals tell stories of other victims, of reflections that reveal secrets better left unseen, and of souls the lake never let go. And when Alice meets Caleb, a mysterious stranger with his own connection to the lake, she realizes she may be caught in something far bigger, and far darker, than she ever imagined.

As the whispers grow deafening and the lake’s grip tightens, Alice must confront her deepest fear: herself. The lake doesn’t just reflect the past; it feeds on guilt, twists it, and turns it into something alive. To escape its pull, Alice must not only face the truth of what happened to Emma but also forgive herself before the lake claims her as its next victim.

Atmospheric, haunting, and brimming with suspense, Shadows on the Lake is a psychological thriller that will keep you turning the pages late into the night. For fans of eerie mysteries, chilling twists, and stories that blur the line between memory and reality, this tale will stay with you long after the final page.
