Book description
When Vicki DeVine inherited a rustic resort near Lake Silence, she thought she was starting over. Divorce behind her, a new life beckoned in this isolated human town that existed under the watchful eye of the Others-vampires, shapeshifters, and creatures far more dangerous than anything from human nightmares.
But hope dies quickly in Bishop's world.
The discovery of a mutilated body changes everything. Aggie Crowe, Vicki's shapeshifter lodger, stumbles upon the corpse, and suddenly Vicki finds herself at the center of a nightmare where human logic means nothing. The local detectives want to blame her, despite evidence that defies explanation-nothing human could have committed such violence.
What follows is a masterful dance of survival. Vicki, caught between her human instincts and the brutal reality of her new world, must navigate relationships with beings who view humans as little more than prey. The tension builds relentlessly as she and her unlikely allies dig deeper into the town's dark secrets.
Bishop's genius lies in her ability to make readers feel the constant threat that permeates every interaction. The audiobook format amplifies this perfectly-every whispered conversation, every footstep in the darkness carries weight. The narrator captures Vicki's growing desperation and determination with remarkable skill.
This isn't just another urban fantasy. Bishop has created something genuinely unsettling-a world where humanity's place in the food chain is brutally clear. Vicki's journey from hopeful newcomer to reluctant survivor makes for compelling listening. The supporting characters, particularly Aggie and the other Others, are richly developed and authentically portrayed.
Lake Silence delivers everything fans of the series have been waiting for while serving as an excellent entry point for newcomers. The mystery unfolds with perfect pacing, keeping listeners guessing until the final revelations.
