To save her daughter's soul, a grieving mother must battle a sinister pastor who feeds off the cremains of the dead and haunts a lake community.

"Deep, disturbing, and beautifully rendered." Christa Carmen, Bram Stoker Award winning author of The Daughters of Block Island

Dive in to the cold, clean, blue waters of Torch lake.

-Where mythical creatures rise to the surface if you know how to summon them.

-Where a lady of the lake cares for the souls who swim in its depths.

-Where a sinister pastor feeds off the misery of those on its shores.

And where a grieving, guilt-ridden mother must battle them all to save her daughter's soul. But if she wants to learn the truth, she'll have to dive deep, for...the lake speaks most honestly to those willing to drown.
