The story line was interesting. Had gore in all the right spots.
Has some tweecking to be done on where sentences stop and start into something else. Made it confusing to read in spots.
I liked the characters and it duo draw me in.
Got a little too much near the end boat scenes.
But the ending was a good one after all that.

Thanks to the Author, the publisher, and NetGalley for an early release of this book.

This book was so poorly written I skimmed through it just to get it done. There numerous typos, misspellings, and hackneyed phrases. A woman and her daughter spend time at an upstate NY lake and become victims of two local madmen. It was really bad.

A sculptor haunted by loss, takes a three month sabbatical with her twelve year old daughter to a lakeside home in upstate New York. At Paradox Lake she discovers that the house was once the site of unspeakable horror. While trying to bond with her daughter and concentrate on her art the past begins to intrude on their otherwise idyllic getaway.
This is one of those thrillers that you can't put down. I found myself flying through the pages. The lead character, single mother Rose Conley, is incredibly relatable. Life has dealt her some very harsh blows but she remains strong, loving. and protective. The description of the mother-daughter bond is accurate and sensitive.An outstanding thriller, genuinely terrifying. I highly recommend it.
