Stillhouse Lake

Gina Royal is the epitome of the typical housewife from the Midwest—a bashful person with a happy husband and two charming kids. However, she is forced to reinvent herself as Gwen Proctor—the epitome of the warrior mother—after a car accident exposes her husband's covert existence as a serial murderer.

Gwen has finally found safety in a new house on isolated Stillhouse Lake while her ex is still incarcerated. Gwen dares to believe her children may finally grow up in peace, despite the fact that she is still the target of stalkers and Internet trolls who believe she is somehow connected to her husband's crimes.

However, no sooner has she begun to settle into her new identity than a corpse is discovered in the lake and threatening letters begin to arrive from an all-too-familiar address. To keep her friends near and her adversaries at away, Gwen Proctor must keep them hidden, or else she risks having her children taken advantage of by a murderer who enjoys torturing her. She has undoubtedly mastered the art of battling evil. And she won't give up.
