Descripción: THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERNamed a most anticipated summer book by USA Today, People, E! News, Cosmopolitan, PureWow, CNN.com, New York Post, CrimeReads, POPSUGAR, and more The bestselling author of Final Girls and Survive the Night is back with his “best plot twist yet.” (People, "Best Summer Books")Be careful what you watch for . . . Casey Fletcher, a recently widowed actress trying to escape a streak of bad press, has retreated to the peace and quiet of her family’s lake house in Vermont. Armed with a pair of binoculars and several bottles of bourbon, she passes the time watching Tom and Katherine Royce, the glamorous couple living in the house across the lake. They make for good viewing—a tech innovator, Tom is powerful; and a former model, Katherine is gorgeous. One day on the lake, Casey saves Katherine from drowning, and the two strike up a budding friendship. But the more they get to know each other—and the longer Casey watches—it becomes clear that Katherine and Tom’s marriage isn’t as perfect as it appears. When Katherine suddenly vanishes, Casey immediately suspects Tom of foul play. What she doesn’t realize is that there’s more to the story than meets the eye—and that shocking secrets can lurk beneath the most placid of surfaces.   Packed with sharp characters, psychological suspense, and gasp-worthy plot twists, Riley Sager’s The House Across the Lake is the ultimate escapist read . . . no lake house required. Críticas “Sager’s best plot twist yet.” —People, "Best Summer Books"“The tale takes a series of weird turns, morphing into a cross between Silence of the Lambs and The Exorcist… As with Sager’s first five thrillers, the characters are well drawn and the prose is first rate.”—Associated Press“It's a familiar psychological thriller structure – until everything changes. . . . A page-turning climax.”—USA Today“The thrills and chills are all present and accounted for in this tale.”—E! News“The House Across the Lake reads like a psychological thriller version of The Great Gatsby, featuring binoculars for more accurate across-the-lake spying, smaller gatherings for a shorter list of suspects, and a truly bat**** twist for more satisfying consumption. So basically The Great Gatsby, but better. I know, them’s fightin words.”—CrimeReads“A suspense novel brimming with twists and turns.”—PureWow“Riley Sager is a master of the art of the thriller.”—Shondaland, "The Best Books for June 2022"“A classic tale brimming with Hitchcockian suspense.” —BookTrib, "Put These 12 Summer Reads in Your Beach Bag""Highly entertaining.... Sager keeps the Rear Window-esque plot of The House Across the Lake focused keenly on believable characters who may not always be likable but who readers will care deeply about…a deliciously eerie plot."—South Florida Sun Sentinel"The House Across the Lake is the work of a master storyteller. A Hitchcockian premise is given an exciting new spin, as voyeurism, murder, and the lies we tell ourselves about our nearest and dearest spiral out of control in this gripping mystery, where nothing is what it seems. I had a thrilling time reading this. An unputdownable page-turner."—Alex Michaelides, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Silent Patient and The Maidens“Riley Sager is an auto-buy for me, and his latest propulsive thriller, The House Across The Lake, may just be my favorite of his yet. With his characteristic mix of dynamic characters and riveting plot twists, Sager will keep you turning the pages in his foray into secrets, grief, revenge, and love.” —Laura Dave, #1 New York Times bestselling author ofThe Last Thing He Told Me"The House Across the Lake pulls you under on the first page and doesn’t let you come up for air. With fascinating characters, a suffocating setting, and an intriguing premise, Riley Sager relentlessly turns up the tension on every page. Good luck putting this book down."—Simone St. James, New York Times bestselling author
