Lisa Jackson is a must read for me. I felt like this book was a bit different from her usual ones. Lots of moving back between the 60’s and 80’s. Harper comes back to the house she grew up in. The house where tragedy has struck not once but three times. Now there are whispers, footsteps and weird dolls everywhere. The ending was a surprise to me.

It Happened on the Lake by Lisa Jackson, published by Kensington Publishing is a complex, pageturning, literally unputdownable mystery/ thriller. Full of twists and unexpected turns, drama and intrigue, I couldn't put the book down. 5 stars.

Holy Lisa Jackson! As always she literally nailed the perfect novel and I’m left with my jaw on the floor. “It Happened on the Lake” has it all from multiple POVs, movement between timelines, and the nostalgia of the 60’s and 80’s with a slice of murder, mystery, and an inheritance covered in blood. I found myself as my own voyeur as I tried to solve the islands mystery’s and haunted by the story. Perfect for fans of Hitchcock and a must for book clubs! You’ll want to discuss and have to discuss.

Suspenseful and mysterious with lots of misdirection. I was surprised at the ending. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher.

It Happened on the Lake by Lisa Jackson was great from start to finish! I went in expecting a good mystery, but this book totally sucked me in with all the creepy vibes and small town secrets. The story follows Harper, who basically has the worst luck ever when it comes to her family and relationships. Her grandmother died under suspicious circumstances, her boyfriend disappeared without a trace, and now years later, she’s back in her eerie old Victorian house on Lake Twilight. Of course, as soon as she returns, all the old rumors and whispers come rushing back. The mystery itself kept me guessing, and while I had my suspicions, there were definitely a few surprises I didn’t see coming. If you like twisty thrillers with a touch of horror, this one’s for you. The suspense builds in such a way that you just have to know what happens next. Definitely worth the read!

This favorite, talented author has written a page turner. This book was difficult to put down. Characters, some likable, kept the story moving quickly. Red herrings kept me guessing. I can usually guess the ending, but this one took some insight. When I see Jackson’s name on a book, I grab it. She does not disappoint. Even the title is intriguing…on the lake…think about it…mysterious…thanks Netgalley

I loved this book. I felt so connected to all of the characters, and I did not really want the story to end!
