SYNOPSIS: “After being cleared of his wife’s murder, Greg Norman returns to her small Connecticut hometown in order to finish building their dream house by the lake. He is eager to restart his life and cast aside any remaining suspicious...but all of that is dashed when a young woman’s body washes up on the beach next door.... The Lakehouse is a domestic psychological thriller about the wayward and marginalized, the lies we tell those closest to us, and the price of forbidden love in an insular community where it seems everyone has a story to tell—and a past they prefer stay buried.” REVIEW: Highly recommend! Joe Clifford pulls you into THE LAKEHOUSE from the start and does not let go until the final word. Told using multiple narrators, this is a highly-bingeworthy domestic thriller revolving around murdered and missing girls and what these crime unearth for those in a small Connecticut town on a lake. Thanks to Polis Books & NetGalley for the ARC of The Lakehouse by Joe Clifford in exchange for this review. |
What an excellent read!This story is filled with a dysfunctional family and their relationships with one another, missing persons, murder, accusations, a bit of romance, a tough police chief who is trying to find the answers, and a bad guy... who you didn't expect ... absolutely stellar! I would like to thank author Joe Clifford, Polis Books and Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for a fair and honest review. |
This book is full of dysfunctional family relationships, missing persons, a murder or two, a couple of accused men, a little bit of romance, a police chief trying to find answers, and a bad guy you don't expect ... amazing! |
Very suspenseful book. Well written so that the author really gives nothing away. Not my usual read but I really enjoyed this one. |

Ugh because I did not like the style of writing I did not get very far before I stopped reading. I will however go back and try again and update my review if necessary. Thank you for an ARC of the Lakehouse in exchange for my honest review. |
