Sweeping back and forth in time, from the 1930s to the end of the 20th century, Vincenta keeps you turning pages as she takes you on a journey that explores the complexities of marriage and families, professional quests as well as one's deepest, darkest passions." -- Renee Rosen, bestselling author of What the Lady Wants, "This tale of deepening obsession with the poetic beauty of another era feels so real it will tie a knot in your belly even as the family at stake unravels. In Vincenta's capable hands, each character's need for validation feels at once romantic and dire. Plenty for book clubs to discuss here!" -- Kathryn Craft, award-winning author of The Far End of Happy and The Art of Falling, "A riveting story of love and obsession when a scholar's infatuation with a dead poetess throws his family into a dangerous matrix of love, hate, truth and deception which threatens his own sanity and his family's destruction." -- Shelley Noble, New York Times bestselling author of Whisper Beach, "This is a novel you will tell your friends about. This is an author you will look forward to hearing more from. This is a story that will tear your heart out, and remember both for its graceful telling and the clear-eyed reality with which it presents two women's lives. " -- Emelle Gamble, author of Secret Sister and Second Man, "Jacquelyn Vincenta spins a haunting tale of madness and obsession wrapped around the mysterious disappearance of a brilliant poet.

I couldn't put it down." -- Mark Nepo, author of The One Life We're Given and The Way Under the Way, "Rife with secrets and tight with suspense, this is a timely and timeless exploration of the price of delusions. Wise, honest, and beautifully rendered, The Lake and the Lost Girl brings a wonderful new voice to the literary world." -- Beth Harbison, New York Times bestselling author of Shoe Addicts Anonymous and Hope in a Jar, "...steady pacing and relatable characters, makes for an emotional, romantic and mysterious story that's filled with both fulfillment and revelation." -- Booklist, "Vincenta writes a compelling story of two women and their troubled lives with elegant prose and luminous characterization" -- Bestselling author Mary Blayney

Synopsis
When her husband's scholarly interest turns to obsession, Lydia Carroll will do whatever it takes to save her familyOn a stormy night in 1939, Mary Stone Walker disappears from her home in White Hill, Michigan. Everyone knew the talented poet was desperate to escape her demons, but when Mary goes missing without a trace, one question lingers in the small town: Did Mary successfully break free of her troubled past and flee, or did her life end that night?Sixty years later, Lydia Carroll's husband is still fixated on the local mystery. English Professor Frank Carroll has invested years in the search for the local poet and her lost works, sacrificing his family, his reputation, and even Lydia for the ever-more-unlikely discovery. As Frank's behavior grows more erratic, Lydia sees that his interest in Mary has evolved into an obsession--one that threatens to destroy the family they have built together, and which can only be undone by solving the mystery of what happened to Mary on that rainy night in 1939. The Lake and the Lost Girl tells the riveting story of secrets from the past unraveling one family from the inside out, and two women, separated by sixty years of history, determined to pursue their dreams., "Vincenta keeps you turning pages as she takes you on a journey that explores the complexities of marriage and families, professional quests as well as one's deepest, darkest passions."-- Renee Rosen, bestselling author of What the Lady Wants When her husband's scholarly interest turns to obsession, Lydia Carroll will do whatever it takes to save her family Local romance author Lydia Carroll only knows one version of the MSW story: her husband's.

As Frank's behavior grows more erratic, Lydia sees that his interest in Mary has evolved into an obsession--one that threatens to destroy the family they have built together. Lydia throws herself into the mystery, hoping to solve it and bring peace back to her home. But as Lydia begins investigating, her son takes action with a plan of his own...one that will bring the family to a breaking point and change Lydia's destiny forever., An intricately plotted debut about love, obsession, and the destruction of a family from the inside out It's 1999 in White Hill, Michigan, and Lydia Carroll's husband is in love with a dead woman.

But as Lydia begins investigating, her son takes action with a plan of his own...one that will bring the family to a breaking point and change Lydia's destiny forever.
