When a charismatic young woman wearing a grief amulet enters the lives of Joanne and Zack Shreve, she brings with her a dark secret and the determination to destroy everything in her way. A dark secret threatens the future of the Shreve familyIt' s August 24, and Joanne Shreve and her husband, Zack, are savoring the last lazy days of summer and looking forward to the birth of a new grandchild; involvement in the campaign of Ali Janvier, a gifted politician with a solid chance of becoming the province' s next premier; and the debut of Sisters and Strangers, the six-part series Joanne co-wrote that focuses on her early life. The series is the flagship of a new slate of programming, and MediaNation is counting on a big return. Joanne and Zack' s stake in the series' s success is personal. Their daughter, Taylor, is in a relationship with one of the show' s stars, and Vale Frazier is already like family to them. It seems the ' season of mist and mellow fruitfulness' will be a bountiful one for the Shreves. But when a charismatic young woman wearing a grief amulet that contains a lock of her dead brother' s hair arrives with a dark secret, the success of Sisters and Strangers and the future of Taylor and Vale' s relationship are jeopardized, and only Joanne and Zack can put an end to the threat.

"Amid the murder and mayhem, Bowen takes time to portray Joanne' s rich life with her loving husband and their grown daughters. Readers will hope she' ll be back soon. " -- Publishers Weekly "Bowen never loses her passion for telling stories that ring with empathy, understanding and a drive for justice as sharp as that of her protagonist. An Image in the Lake is a perfect blend of vintage Bowen -- characters we' ve loved for a long time -- and an up-to-the-minute examination of today' s issues, wrapped in a perfectly executed web of animosities, old and new, and long-buried secrets that threaten everything Joanne holds dear. " -- Vicki Delany, national bestselling author of the Sherlock Holmes Bookshop series "Fans will gobble up An Image in the Lake. " -- Winnipeg Free Press "This may be Gail Bowen' s most comprehensive novel in her Joanne Kilbourn series . . . The stories make for juicy material. " -- Toronto Star
