Green Lake

The suicide of Madeleine Heron's husband leaves her at her sister's lake house for the summer, until she can ‘sort things out' for herself and find a new direction, but life in the lake community is anything but conducive to calm; right away a three year old girl goes missing from the dam, Madeleine is nearly assaulted when her truck breaks down, and she discovers her neighbors have an affinity for digging holes and burying things in their yard, usually things they find floating in the lake, like a hand, or an arm… Native American conservation officer Eris Renard appears to be the only sane person around, and without warning Madeleine finds herself falling for him, but he's an adopted Indian who's just found his birth mother, a famous artist who hates Madeleine.
