From #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Jackson comes It Happened on the Lake, a chilling standalone psychological thriller inspired by the suspense of Rear Window. Packed with long-buried secrets, family scandals, and relentless twists, this atmospheric mystery is perfect for readers who love dark, edge-of-your-seat suspense.

Twenty years ago, Harper Reed Prescott's life changed forever.

On one tragic night at her family's sprawling Victorian estate on Lake Twilight, her grandmother died under suspicious circumstances, and Harper's boyfriend vanished without a trace. His body was never found. No one was ever charged.

But the rumors never disappeared.

Now, after the collapse of her marriage and the growing distance between herself and her adult daughter, Harper returns to the lake hoping to sell the estate and finally leave the past behind.

Instead, old whispers begin again.

As Harper settles back into the isolated property—including its eerie private island—she can't shake the feeling that someone is watching her from across the water. The deeper she digs into the events of that fateful night, the more dangerous the truth becomes.

With every revelation, Harper realizes the past isn't buried—it has been waiting for her to come home.

Dark, suspenseful, and filled with Hitchcockian tension, It Happened on the Lake is an unforgettable thriller where every secret comes with deadly consequences.
