Returning to her childhood town, she finds Ashford eerily unchanged but unmistakably wrong. Shadows linger. The lake whispers. And Clara's presence-whether ghostly or real-seems to follow her. As Evelyn reconnects with Ryan, her childhood friend, and the now-retired detective Julian Hale, they uncover chilling clues buried in old journals, forgotten police files, and cryptic symbols that suggest Clara's disappearance was no accident-it was a sacrifice.
The truth unravels slowly, revealing a pact older than the town itself: a cycle of offerings to the lake, one child every generation, in exchange for peace. Clara, it seems, may have crossed into something far more terrifying than death-a realm where reflections lie and memory becomes a trap.
As a new child disappears, Evelyn must race against time to confront the truth, break the cycle, and seal the gate beneath Ashford Lake. But doing so means facing not just the monsters beneath the water, but also the one that lives in her heart: the guilt of being the one left behind.
Blending psychological suspense, supernatural mystery, and lyrical storytelling, The Echo of Ashford Lake is a haunting tale of friendship, loss, and the echoes that never truly fade. Perfect for fans of The Drowning Kind and The Haunting of Hill House, this is a novel where trauma lingers like fog, and the lake remembers everyone.
