De: Katherine Greene

Narrado por: Helen Laser, Frankie Corzo, Sara Young, Haley Taylor, David Bendena

Told in alternating timelines, The Lake of Lost Girls is a haunting novel that will thrill fans of All Good People Here and We Are All the Same in the Dark.

Using suspenseful podcast clips to weave a twisty tale of a missing student and her sister who is desperate for answers, The Lake of Lost Girls is perfect for fans of I Have Some Questions for You.

It’s 1998, and female students are going missing at Southern State University in North Carolina, but freshman Jessica Fadley, once a bright and responsible student, is going through her own struggles. Just as her life seems to be careening dangerously out of control, she suddenly disappears.

Twenty-four years later, Jessica’s sister Lindsey is desperately searching for answers and uses the momentum of a new chart-topping true crime podcast that focuses on cold cases to guide her own investigation. Soon, interest reaches fever pitch when the bodies of the long-missing women begin turning up at a local lake, which leads Lindsey down a disturbing road of discovery.

In the present, one sister searches to untangle a complicated web of lies.

In the past, the other descends ever deeper into a darkness that will lead to her ultimate fate.

This propulsive and chilling suspense is a sharp examination of sisterhood and the culture of true crime.

Absolutely incredible - shocking end

The full cast is incredible, and I love an audiobook with a podcast included within the story! As a true crime lover, sometimes it is hard for me to get into fictional crime novels because I tend to notice a lot of the mistakes the police should have caught that wouldn’t really go unnoticed in reality. However, I was fully immersed in this story and could not stop listening. I loved that the book straight up acknowledges the fact that the small town police force did not investigate the case enough when the crimes occurred. I also loved the alternating timelines and the different point of views. I especially liked how Lindsey (one of the victim’s sister and a main POV) was actually listening to the podcast that is another one of the POVs. Although I had my suspicions throughout the book on who the killer was, I did keep going back and forth as the story progressed and I was NOT ready for what we find out at the end. Definitely one of the best books I’ve read this year!

Twisty little Twist

Fun thriller with a twist that felt fair and maybe a little shocking to most listeners. I liked the podcast element as well.

wow!

wow! Just wow! this book kept me guess all the way to the end! I thought i had it all figured out but I did not. such a good read! loved the mixed media in this one.

Podcast Mystery

I enjoy any story based around a podcast. Good mystery, but disappointing, unbelievable ending. All good until conclusion.

Suspenseful

Great book! Can’t say anything else without giving it away….worth the listen! Enjoy listening to it!

Holy cow get ready for this

Hands down best audiobook of 2024! Switching between the sisters stories and the podcast was so intense! I highly recommend this audiobook

Twisty plat but not very believable in the end

I enjoyed the podcast portion it was well done and seemed real!
I did not love the voice of Ryan which was done by a female so it was not believable.
The moving in and out of timelines was well done but in the end the story fell a little flat for me. Worth a listen.

Great book!

Great book! The ending came out of no where and kept me on the edge of my seat!

The ending blew my mind

Didn’t love the voices used but the story had me hooked. Couldn’t stop listening to the story. I had to know

Such a great listen!!!

I loved this! The narrators did a fantastic job and I was so gripped by the story. I really enjoyed the podcast element as well!
