THE LAST NIGHT AT COLD LAKE
SHE PLANNED TO DISAPPEAR.
SHE JUST DIDN'T PLAN ON LEAVING BLOOD BEHIND.
When Mara Voss disappears from Cold Lake, her boat is found drifting offshore.
There is blood on the seat.
But it isn't hers.
For eleven years, Mara has carried a secret from the night a teenage boy died in an accident. She has paid someone to keep quiet, built a carefully controlled life, and convinced herself she knows what happened that night.
Then the man who knows the truth wants to talk.
And Mara begins preparing to disappear.
But before she can finish what she started, she is gone.
Her husband, Nathan, refuses to accept that she simply walked away. As he searches for answers, he uncovers hidden money, unexplained phone calls, missing records, and a seventeen-year-old case that seems to have been buried along with the truth.
The deeper Nathan digs, the less the story makes sense.
Why was Mara preparing to run?
Who was she afraid of?
What really happened seventeen years ago?
And why has someone worked so hard to keep the past buried?
Because the truth may be very different from the story Mara has believed for eleven years.
THE LAST NIGHT AT COLD LAKE is a twist-filled small-town mystery thriller about a missing wife, a buried cold case, hidden evidence, family secrets, guilt, manipulation, and the devastating consequences of protecting the wrong person.
Perfect for readers who enjoy psychological suspense, missing-person mysteries, cold cases, small-town crime, unreliable memories, family secrets, and twist-filled investigations where every answer raises another question.
The boat is empty.
The blood isn't.
And someone has been lying about what happened for seventeen years.
