The lake has been singing for twenty years. It's only going to get louder.
When Sarah Anderson hears a haunting melody drifting across Crystal Lake—one that only she, her teenage daughter Emma, and their telepathic Papillon Pixie can hear—she knows Rosewood Hollow's magical undercurrent is stirring again. What she doesn't know yet is why. Or how deep she'll have to go to find out.
The answer arrives with Grammy-winning pop star Hannah Blackwood, home for the town's beloved summer festival for the first time in two decades. Hannah is carrying a secret that has hollowed her out from the inside: the night her best friend Jessica Carter disappeared, Hannah was there. She drove away. And she has never stopped wondering whether that decision cost Jessica her life.
The whole town has wondered too.
Now, with the summer solstice approaching and the ancient ley lines beneath Crystal Lake crackling to life, Jessica's spirit is growing stronger—and she has chosen Emma to carry her message to the living. Sarah has days to unravel what really happened before the truth disappears for good: a cold case buried under two decades of silence, a network of crystal caves that shouldn't exist, and a shadowy figure who has been watching from the treeline since long before anyone started asking questions.
When the answer finally surfaces, it will shatter everything the town thought it knew—and set a young woman's spirit free at last.
