About the Book

Una historia de misterio orquestada por personajes pintorescos y ambientada entre los años treinta y la actualidad. Una novela absorbente como solo Kate Morton, autora de El jardín olvidado, sabe hacerlo.

Todas las familias tienen secretos.

Y, para algunas, basta solo un acontecimiento para cambiarlo todo.
Un niño desaparecido...
Junio de 1933: en Loanneth, la mansión en el campo de la familia Edevane, todo está limpio y reluciente, listo para la tan esperada fiesta de solsticio de verano. Alice Edevane, de dieciséis años y escritora en ciernes, está especialmente ilusionada. No solo ha encontrado el giro argumental perfecto para su novela, también se ha enamorado perdidamente de quien no debería. Pero para cuando llegue la media noche y los fuegos artificiales iluminen el cielo estival, la familia Edevane habrá sufrido una pérdida tan grande que tendrá que abandonar Loanneth para siempre...

Una casa abandonada.

Setenta años más tarde: después de un caso especialmente complicado, Sadie Sparrow, investigadora en Scotland Yard, está cumpliendo un permiso forzoso en su trabajo. Refugiada en la casa de su abuelo en Cornualles, pronto comprueba que estar ociosa le resulta complicado. Hasta que un día llega por casualidad a una vieja casa abandonada rodeada de jardines salvajes y espesos bosques y descubre la historia de un niñito desaparecido sin dejar rastro...

Un misterio sin resolver.

Mientras tanto, en el ático de una elegante casa en Hampstead, la formidable Alice Edevane, ya anciana, lleva una vida tan cuidadosamente planeada como las novelas policíacas que escribe. Hasta que una joven detective empieza a hacer preguntas sobre su pasado familiar en un intento por desenterrar la intrincada maraña de secretos de los que Alice ha pasado toda su vida tratando de escapar.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Secret Keeper comes a "moody, suspenseful page-turner" (People, Best Book Pick) filled with mystery and spellbinding secrets.

Living on her family's idyllic lakeside estate in Cornwall, England, Alice Edevane is a bright, inquisitive, and precociously talented sixteen-year-old who loves to write stories.

One midsummer's eve, after a beautiful party drawing hundreds of guests to the estate has ended, the Edevanes discover that their youngest child, eleven-month-old Theo, has vanished without a trace. He is never found, and the family is torn apart, the house abandoned.

Decades later, Alice is living in London, having enjoyed a long successful career as a novelist. Miles away, Sadie Sparrow, a young detective in the London police force, is staying at her grandfather's house in Cornwall. While out walking one day, she stumbles upon the old Edevane estate--now crumbling and covered with vines. Her curiosity is sparked, setting off a series of events that will bring her and Alice together and reveal shocking truths about a past long gone...yet more present than ever.

A lush, atmospheric tale of intertwined destinies from a masterful storyteller, The Lake House is an enthralling, thoroughly satisfying read.
