Tucked in the folds of the woman's curiously vintage gown is an infant, as cold and at peace as its mother. No one can identify the woman. Except for Kate. She's seen her before. In her dreams...</p><p>One hundred years ago, a love story ended in tragedy, its mysteries left unsolved. It's time for the lake to give up its secrets. As each mystery unravels, it pulls Kate deeper into the eddy of a haunting folktale that has been handed down in whispers over generations. Now, it's Kate's turn to listen.</p><p>As the drowned woman reaches out from the grave, Kate reaches back. They must come together, if only in dreams, to right the sinister wrongs of the past.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>An <i>Entertainment Weekly</i> New and Notable selection</p><p>A Refinery29 Best Book of November</p><p>A Liz & Lisa Best Book of the Month</p><p>"Simultaneously melancholy and sweet at its core." <b>--<i>Kirkus Reviews</i></b></p><p>"Well-delineated characters and a suspenseful plot make this a winner." <b>--<i>Publishers Weekly</i></b></p><p>"<i>Daughters of the Lake</i> has everything you could want in a spellbinding read: unexpected family secrets, ghosts, tragic love stories, intertwined fates." <b>--Refinery29</b></p><p>"...Perfect for anyone who loves a good ghost story that bleeds into the present day." <b>--<i>Health</i></b></p><p>"<i>Daughters of the Lake</i> is gothic to its core, a story of ghostly revenge, of wronged parties setting history right." <b>--<i>Star Tribune</i></b></p><p>"<i>Daughters of the Lake</i> provides an immersive reading experience to those who love ghostly mysteries, time travel, and lovely descriptions." <b>--New York Journal of Books</b></p><p>"<i>Daughters of the Lake</i> is an alchemical blend of romance, intrigue, ancestry, and the supernatural." <b>--Bookreporter</b></p><p>"Eerie, atmospheric, and mesmerizing." <b>--<i>Novelgossip</i></b></p><p>"...Haunting and heartbreaking...A masterful work of suspense..." <b>--Midwest Book Review</b></p><p>"In Wendy Webb's entrancing <i>Daughters of the Lake</i>, dreams open a door between the dead and the living, a lake spirit calls to a family of gifted women, and a century-old murder is solved under the cover of fog.
