Description

THIS DAY NEVER HAPPENED. YOU HEAR ME?


By a frozen lake, ten-year-old Jesse waits for his father. It's New Year's Day, and his dad promised a fresh start. But Jesse messed it all up. And that's when he meets the woman.


In the months ahead, the woman's sudden disappearance sets off a chain of events in Whale Bay, spanning out like fracture lines into the lives of her husband, the detective trying to solve her case, and of Jesse and his family - a young boy cracking like ice under the weight of a terrible secret.


How A Woman Becomes a Lake is a chilling literary mystery that asks what happens when we are failed by the ones we love.
