What Happened at the Lake

They went on vacation. Not everyone made it back. The Palmers went to the lake for a week of fun in the sun. But Alex Palmer had an agenda. He wanted his brother to reconcile with their hypercompetitive father. He wanted his daughter to break up with her shady boyfriend. Most of all, Alex wanted them to be a family one more time before he faced his predicament at home. Evil incarnate and a brutal double murder shifted Alex's focus from wants to needs. He needed to keep his family safe. He needed to find her. He needed to know what happened at the lake. His pastor often said, "God won't give you more than you can bear." This had nothing to do with God. NOTE TO THE READER: This is a dark psychological thriller that delves into depraved acts of humanity. For adult readers only who can handle these subject matters.

I loved the character development. But most of all I loved how smoothly the story flowed." - AMB ★★★★★ "I gave this book the 5 star maximum but it was 20 stars short. This book was unbelievably fantastic and I stayed up almost all night to finish it because I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep otherwise." - Kindle Reader ★★★★★ "Phil Williams can make more twists and turns than a pretzel maker. I finally have up trying to get one step ahead of him. Instead I fastened my seatbelt and let him take me around hairpin turns at 100 mph, down into dark and dangerous tunnels and finally bringing me gasping for breath back into the light." - Mary R. ★★★★★
