Following the success of his latest novel, Travis Glasgow
and his wife Jodie buy their first house in the seemingly
idyllic western Maryland town of Westlake. At first,
everything is picture perfect—from the beautiful lake behind
the house to the rebirth of the friendship between Travis
and his brother, Adam, who lives nearby. Travis also begins
to overcome the darkness of his childhood and the guilt he’s
harbored since his younger brother’s death—a tragic drowning
veiled in mystery that has plagued Travis since he was 13.
Soon, though, the new house begins to lose its
allure. Strange noises wake Travis at night, and his dreams
are plagued by ghosts. Barely glimpsed shapes flit through
the darkened hallways, but strangest of all is the bizarre
set of wooden stairs that rises cryptically out of the lake
behind the house. Travis becomes drawn to the structure,
but the more he investigates, the more he uncovers the
house’s violent and tragic past, and the more he learns that
some secrets cannot be buried forever.
