This was certainly different. I like the way this book is divided into “Before” and “Now” sections, reminding the reader of the past and the present. I think those are essential elements in understanding Casey’s story.
Casey, undoubtedly, has a drinking issue. There’s no
question about that. She also has a sense of curiosity and a pair of
binoculars. There is also, obviously, a house that sits directly across from
her own lake house. So, guess what she does when she has had entirely too much
to drink and a lot of time on her hands during the evening hours?
Tom and Katherine – the couple who live in that house across
the lake.
Her neighbor is an attractive fellow, but she wants to keep
her distance. The other across-the-lake neighbor helps Casey by watching out
for her and making store runs. Casey, as you may have guessed, is also a bit of
a loner.
What really intrigued me about this one was the
farfetchedness of what happens in the lake that separates the properties. There
is a bit of a paranormal aspect to it. Kind of a situation that makes one shake
their head and ask, “Really?” I liked it! I also like the added twist at the
end that tied some loose ends together and certainly one I wasn’t expecting.
