Under the Lake

Stuart Woods

Still waters run deep—and deadly—in this “blockbuster”* thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author Stuart Woods.

“Part detective story, part ghost story, part Southern gothic…It scared the living hell out of me!”—Stephen King

Situated on a peaceful lake in the prettiest part of the North Georgia mountains, Sutherland seems like a nice town, warm and quiet. The kind of place where families know their neighbors and children can grow up safe. The perfect sanctuary for John Howell, a former investigative journalist trying to escape from his past. But Sutherland harbors a dark evil, hidden deep within the lake’s waters.    Soon, whispered rumors of greed, lust, and, corruption reach Howell, who begins to dig into the history of Sutherland. But someone doesn’t want Howell to uncover the truth of what lies beneath the lake, and will stop at nothing to silence him...
