The Lake

Rate this book
Secluded. Luxurious. Deadly. A gripping new page-turner from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Chalet and The Cruise.

Still waters hide dark secrets …
A remote Scottish lake

The guests arriving at Creaglie Castle are expecting discreet luxury, panoramic views, and perhaps a glimpse of one of its infamous ghosts.

No means of escape
When a violent storm severs all contact with the mainland, it’s not the spirits they need to fear…

Trust no one
As the past resurfaces and trust vanishes, it's clear that not everyone will be leaving Creaglie Castle alive.

Will The Lake give up its secrets, before somebody else dies?

Review of advance copy
December 27, 2025
I got this as a Christmas present but saw it in a shop just after its release in November.

It was a fantastically mysterious book, all the characters were likable, some were underused however, I think the way the book was laid out work, however the sections about the previous ladies and Silas's "voiceover" could maybe have been more intertwined.

Overall 5/5, enjoyable read.
