Not A Sound by Heather GudenkaufRead about the other entries on the list.
Granted, this story is set on a river and not a lake, but the creepiness factor still applies in spades. A deaf woman and her dog make a gruesome discovery: the body of a fellownurse in the dense bush by the river, deep in the woods near her cabin. The remote setting, the wild waters, the main character’s inability to hear the villain crashing through the woods behind her…they all lend the story mystery and intrigue. I barely breathed for the last half of this book, a fantastic and enthralling read.
Not A Sound is among Trish Bendix's twelve best mystery novels (June 2019).
