Suffering from writer's block, novelist Rachel Ames escapes to a lake cabin to calm her mind and regain a sense of herself. The location is perfect. Isolated. Beautiful. Inspiring. It even comes with a good-looking landlord who shows an interest in her. But she can't shake the sense that something terrible has followed her to the lake, something just beyond her consciousness, something out on the edge where the sounds of a raging fire and sirens linger whenever she slows down to listen. Determined to make the cabin work, she tries to settle in and give her new life a chance. But when strange things begin to happen around her, she wonders if she's made a terrible mistake. As the darkness that's followed her manifests itself in inexplicable ways, her concept of reality is stretched thin and she realizes nothing at the lake is what it seems. As she fights to survive with her sanity intact, she understands too late that the location she's chosen for herself is far from perfect.

Novice opinion. I was able to guess a decent amount of the book. Definitely didn't go exactly the way I thought it would. I of course love that. Also pulled at my heart strings, which I always enjoy.

Mostly Predictable but still a decent listen

I thought the story was hard to follow at times. Interesting twist at the end.

A power story, written in the most engaging manner. The message quietly appears, in a slowish creeping fashion. But hits with the force of a surprise when it comes out.

Heart wrenching

It was OK. Nothing good or bad, just OK. It was short but I like short stories.

The narrator gave a good performance - using shift of tone etc to create distinct personas for characters, great enunciation and pleasing voice. Overall it was an interesting story but I didn't really like the smug dishonesty of the main character.

An okay listen....

Sometimes I get leery with free books because some of the ones I listened to are not that great but this one really gripped me. This would make a great movie. Nothing is as it seems in this book and I loved it. Great listen. This is a book that would have been worth a credit.

Twisted

Loved this story! It even made me cry! Not horror in a scary sense. This is a journey into tragedy, love, loss and the frailty of being human.

Excellent! 5 stars!
