Dead
Lake - Book 1 Dead Lake Mystery Series - Review by Martha A. Cheves, Author of
Stir, Laugh, Repeat; Think With Your Taste Buds; A Book and A Dish
'A lone cypress tree formed an eerie silhouette,
but it wasn't the only creepy skeleton rising from Dead Lake. Judy's eyes
took in her surroundings and noticed many bony fingers reaching skyward.
No other boats launched. She couldn't shake the ominous feeling that
snaked through her body.
Judy Knowlton and her husband Jim both enjoyed
retirement, but their opinions about fishing differed. She loved to fish,
but she didn't think she needed a boat. He did. The red and black
Bass Tracker was his pride and joy. Jim wanted her to go fishing with him
on Dead Lake. She was nervous enough about going in that small fishing
boat, let alone on Dead Lake. Surely nothing good could come of a fishing
trip on a lake with a name like that, but she'd do just about anything to
please her honey.'
Well, guess what. Her fears were soon to
become true. Apparently a convict had escaped and was in the area.
Jim didn't seem to be too concerned. Surely the man wasn't stupid enough
to be around this swamp of a lake. Even when their boat ran out of gas,
and they became lost he felt safe. That is until a small boat with a man
who didn't appear to be enjoying himself fishing turned up. Judy prayed
that he was just a local fisherman but from the look on his face, she knew that
wasn't the case.
Judy and Jim can't seem to get rid of this man
who turns out to be as slippery as an eel. He is captured and tied up by
the man they met who goes by the name Swamp Rat only to find his way
lose. He defeats the police every time they come close to capturing
him. He knows the swamp like the back of his hand and why not? He
actually grew up there with his moonshine producing dad and a brother before
being sent to prison. The biggest question in Judy's mind is why is he so
attracted to her property. That too was something she was about to find
out the hard way.
This book is filled with suspense, a few
giggles, and a lot of page turning. This is book one of the series, and I
can't wait to read book two
