The lake is changing. And Ivy may be the only one paying attention.
After the events of The Gilded Hotel, Ivy thought the mystery was finally behind her. The hotel is running, life is settling down, and Haven Hollow is beginning to feel like home.
Then the water starts to disappear.
The lake level drops without explanation. Strange sounds drift across the canal at night. And an old fisherman appears along the shoreline again and again—always in the same place, always watching.
Something beneath Haven Hollow is beginning to surface.
As Ivy digs into the history of the lake and the neighborhood surrounding it, she uncovers local legends, buried secrets, and a past the town would rather leave undisturbed. The deeper she searches, the clearer it becomes that some places have very long memories.
Set in a quiet Florida lakeside town, The Whispering Lake blends Southern Gothic atmosphere, slow-burn suspense, haunted history, psychological mystery, and small-town secrets with a touch of the unexplained.
Moss-draped shorelines. Humid Florida nights. Eerie sounds over dark water. And a lake that seems to remember what everyone else has forgotten.
Perfect for listeners who enjoy atmospheric mysteries, haunted places, local legends, buried histories, eerie Southern settings, and stories where the setting becomes part of the mystery.
Some secrets are buried. Others are only waiting for the water to recede.
The Whispering Lake is Book Two in the Haven Hollow series by Lula Starling.
