by Raven Snow (Author)
Lady makes a lot of rash decisions. Her most recent was leaving home because her parents wouldn't let her keep a cat. It's not long before she leaves the city of Atlanta behind only to find herself stranded in the small, mysterious town of Dark Lake. Dark Lake has a lot of secrets, secrets Lady doesn't want to get herself involved in. She wants nothing more than to get on the next bus out of town, but Dark Lake seems to have other plans. Soon, Lady finds herself mixed up in a possible murder. There was a body found in the eponymous lake of Dark Lake, and she was the one that reported it. Between a grim mystery, a landlady who calls herself a witch, and her tabby cat, Lion, starting to talk to her in her dreams... Lady's life is taking a downright bizarre turn. First Volume of the Dark Lake Chronicles Series. Approx. 51,000 words in length. It is a standalone (reading prior or future volumes not required to enjoy the book, no cliffhanger).
