One lake. Two histories. A town divided by the past-and haunted by what still lingers beneath the surface.

One lake. Two histories. A town divided by the past-and haunted by what still lingers beneath the surface. In a quiet Northwest Florida town, a beautiful, secluded lake was once a place of reflection-until it became a symbol of division. For over forty years, local leaders chose to close the lake to everyone rather than allow their Black neighbors to swim beside them. As the Confederate flag waved in the sweltering sun, the waters remained untouched-calm on the surface, turbulent beneath. In The Lake - Divided Waters, award-winning author Tom McAuliffe delivers a deeply moving work of historical fiction rooted in racial injustice, generational trauma, and the long fight for dignity and equality in the American South. Inspired by true events, this semi-fictional narrative blends intimate storytelling with sweeping social themes, transporting readers to a time when silence was complicity-and progress came at a painful cost. As the town begins to reckon with its past, the lake slowly transforms from a symbol of hate to one of healing. But scars remain, and the journey toward reconciliation is far from over. Award winning Author Tom McAuliffe weaves a powerful, poignant story for fans of literary fiction, Southern history, and civil rights-era narratives, The Lake - Divided Waters is both a love letter to progress and a stark reminder of how far we still have to go.
