Publisher's Summary
Living on her family’s gorgeous lakeside estate in Cornwall, England, Alice Edevane is a bright, clever, inquisitive, innocent, and precociously talented 14-year-old who loves to write stories. But the mysteries she pens are no match for the one her family is about to endure....
One midsummer’s eve, after a beautiful party drawing hundreds of guests to the estate has ended, the Edevanes discover that their youngest son, Theo, has vanished without a trace. What follows is a tragedy that tears the family apart in ways they never imagined, leaving their estate as empty as their broken hearts.
Nearly 60 years later, having enjoyed a long, successful career as an author, Alice is now 80 years old and living in London. Theo’s case has never been solved, though Alice still harbours a suspicion as to the culprit.
Miles away, Sadie Sparrow, a young detective in the London police force, is staying at her grandfather’s house in Cornwall. While out walking one day, she stumbles upon the old estate - now crumbling and covered with vines, clearly abandoned long ago. Her curiosity is sparked, setting off a series of events that will bring her and Alice together and reveal shocking truths about a past long gone... yet more present than ever.
A lush, atmospheric tale of intertwined destinies, this latest novel from a masterful storyteller is spellbinding and satisfying.

First listen after reading 2 others
I have read two other Kate Morton books, and I enjoyed listening to "The Lake House", the story lines were so much easier to follow, as I read at such a slow rate, and I listened to the book much more often! The story and narration make you feel like you are right there a part of history!

Life is about Serendipity and Embracing it 🙏
I loved the connections made in the novel even if they seemed so unbelievable. Life is like that when we see a coincidence occur we tend to deflect it from our life’s rather than paying attention to it.
In my own life I’ve had many coincidences occur like the man I saved from taking his life. Finding out only years later that his sister was my daughters beloved neighbour. Amazing eh 🙏❤️
Enjoy life and embrace the connections that make us human. That’s what Kate Morton offers in her novels.
