About

Set against the eerie stillness of a lonely lakeside home, this gripping psychological thriller will have you questioning every word, every glance and every shadow.
As secrets from the past come to light, a seemingly quiet evening unravels into a tense and chilling showdown. Loyalties are tested, truth becomes elusive, and the line between right and wrong grows ever blurrier.
Written by Hugh Mills, The House by the Lake is a masterclass in suspense - rich in character, haunting in atmosphere, and packed with slow-burning tension that explodes when you least expect it.
