Overview

Notes From Your Bookseller

For anyone who can’t get enough cabin in the woods horror, here’s one from horror mainstay Darcy Coates. A struggling artist seeking solitude gets more than she bargained for in a mysterious stranger. It’s creepy, it’s gasp-y, and it’s a speedy read.

A remote lake. A locked cabin. A woman alone—with someone watching.

In Dead Lake, bestselling horror author Darcy Coates plunges you into an eerie, psychological survival story where every shadow feels alive—and the silence is anything but empty.

Sam is an artist desperate to save her floundering career. With a last-chance exhibition looming and her inspiration gone, she retreats to a secluded cabin deep in the forest. No neighbors. No phone. No distractions. Just seven days to paint or fail.

But someone else is out there.

At first, it's just a shadow on the shore. A figure in the distance. Then he begins to follow her. Sabotage her. Trap her. With her car disabled and her last link to the outside world destroyed, Sam realizes she's the prey in a terrifying game…

Perfect for fans of Paul Tremblay and Amy Cross, Dead Lake blends psychological horror, creeping suspense, and visceral dread in a taut, propulsive read.
