The House Across the Lake
THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Named a most-anticipated summer book by USA Today, People, E! News, Cosmopolitan, PureWow, CNN.com, New York Post, CrimeReads, POPSUGAR, and more
The bestselling author of Final Girls and Survive the Night is back with his “best plot twist yet.” (People, "Best Summer Books")
Be careful what you watch for . . .
Casey Fletcher, a recently widowed actress trying to escape a streak of bad press, has retreated to the peace and quiet of her family’s lake house in Vermont. Armed with a pair of binoculars and several bottles of bourbon, she passes the time watching Tom and Katherine Royce, the glamorous couple living in the house across the lake. They make for good viewing—a tech innovator, Tom is powerful; and a former model, Katherine is gorgeous.
One day on the lake, Casey saves Katherine from drowning, and the two strike up a budding friendship. But the more they get to know each other—and the longer Casey watches—it becomes clear that Katherine and Tom’s marriage isn’t as perfect as it appears. When Katherine suddenly vanishes, Casey immediately suspects Tom of foul play. What she doesn’t realize is that there’s more to the story than meets the eye—and that shocking secrets can lurk beneath the most placid of surfaces.
Packed with sharp characters, psychological suspense, and gasp-worthy plot twists, Riley Sager’s The House Across the Lake is the ultimate escapist read . . . no lake house required.

Reviews
I was expecting the same ole same ole script…that is so easy to come by these days and could not be happier with this past book. Hands down a top fave.
By Sayre Roberts
I enjoyed this book. Well built mystery. Some big surprises I did NOT see coming. The nature of those surprises may not be for everyone but I certainly enjoyed the unanticipated turn of events.
By JudeTheArtist
A bit disappointing.
By Dollybolly1
This had all the potential to be a great book. Then, the story took on some elements that required the reader to suspend all sense of reality. Other reviews have also touched on this and I fully agree.
By Ozcrome
It was an interesting plot, but I feel like Tom’s storyline should have been a little more surprising than it was.
