Dead Lake
Dead Lake | Darcy Coates
23 posts | 24 read | 48 to read
Keep the door locked... A week's visit to the remote Harob Lake cabin couldn't have come at a better time for Sam. She's battling artist's block ahead of a major gallery exhibition. Staying at Harob Lake is her final, desperate attempt to paint the collection that could save her floundering career. It seems perfect: no neighbours, no phone, no distractions. But the dream retreat disintegrates into a nightmare when Sam discovers she's being stalked. A tall, strange man stands on the edge of her dock, staring intently into the swirling waters below. He starts to follow her. He disables her car. He destroys her only way to communicate with the outside world. And Sam is beginning to suspect he's responsible for the series of disappearances from a nearby hiking trail. Stranded at Harob Lake, Sam realises she's become the prey in the hunter's deadliest game...

This was a classic collection of horror stories that was just the right amount of spooky. The Mannequin was my favorite.

This is now one of my favorite Darcy Coates books. I felt anxious through most of the book and found the end very satisfying. It ticked all the boxes for a short creepy read. I don't want to say any more that would give anything away. It's a fast read and another square on my #bookspinbingo card.

I came across Dracy Coates as part of our #screamsbymail PBC and picked up this novella because I loved her novel ‘Hunted‘ so much. I‘m just one chapter in and the creep factor is real. 😱

JoScho Darcy Coates is one of my faves! 5y

Fast paced, super creepy! I loved it! It takes a lot for me to be creeped out or feel suspense, this book did both! I‘m definitely going to be reading more of Coates‘ books.

howlinglibraries Excellent! 5y
BookishMadHatter Loved this one also. She's an awesome author and I've enjoyed a lot of her work so far 5y

Thank you so much Destiny! I‘ve got a lot of her books on my kindle but have have been distracted by all my other books! I definitely plan on reading before the new year. I‘m looking to add some quick reads to my reading challenge! #KindLitsy

howlinglibraries You‘re welcome! I feel you, I have a handful of hers waiting on me as well but I think this might be my next read of hers. Hopefully we both will enjoy it! ☺️ 5y
JoScho @howlinglibraries I love Darcy Coates as well and this was the first one I read by her. It is short and creepy. 5y
Literary_Siren @JoScho sounds perfect! 5y

This is a super short, creepy read (less than 150 pages). Sam visits a remote cabin to get some painting done for a gallery show. The calming atmosphere she was hoping for quickly becomes the thing nightmares are made of. You know that feeling of being watched-well I was anxious taking a shower last night after reading this book for a few hours. I found it to be a good palate cleanser. It is also free on Kindle Unlimited.

CherryPie Sounds good! Also free to Prime members. 6y
JoScho @CherryPie yay! (edited) 6y
