Black Water

Murder, monsters, and mayhem all play a part in the new thriller Black Water: Lake of Secrets.

Public Safety Diver Ethan Grey is haunted by the violent death of his wife, changing the otherwise affable Renaissance man into a dark shell of his former self. He is reluctantly teamed with Dana Allen, recently arrived from California. Previously an officer with the LAPD, she is looking for a new life, and finds it with the Jensen County Dive Unit based in Black Falls, Wisconsin.

Assigned to interview witnesses claiming that a "monster" is in Lake Clearwater - an abandoned open-pit iron mine - the two partners begin what seems to be an otherwise nonsensical investigation.

However, after diving the lake, they discover the "monster" to be something else altogether. But what and why remains a mystery. A murdered diver and a series of increasingly violent incidents soon make it clear that this is no joke.

Whatever is happening deep in the Black Water of the formerly peaceful Wisconsin community is a mystery that will keep readers guessing.
