A Swimmer is Dead
(2024)(The second book in the Darkwater Lake Mystery series)
A novel by Tannis Laidlaw
Jodie loves her boat-access-only summer cottage at the lake. While relaxing with a friend, Jodie watches some kids larking about on jet-skis on the water. Soon, to their horror, the boys head towards the dock with a gruesome load – a very dead teenaged boy clad only in a swimsuit. The obviously distressed younger boy tells the women he ran over the swimmer accidentally with his jet-ski. The boys roar away without further explanation.
Jodie calls the police. She suspects the boy’s ‘confession’ was contrived because no jet-ski could have inflicted those types of wounds. And, if it had been an accident, why did the boys not wait for the authorities?
