JUST ANOTHER WOMAN’S BODY FOUND IN ANOTHER

BODY OF WATER?

How many times has it been heard that another woman has been disposed of in a large body of water just to get rid of her remains? When these bodies float ashore, it’s just another callous, carousing husband who gets investigated. But what if a husband isn’t involved and it isn’t a crime of domestic violence? What if the killers disposed of the body in such a way that it should never have been recovered, but a freak twist of events does that very thing?

Special Agent Daniel Kleison from the FBI is assigned the rather mundane task of identifying the jurisdiction of a body discovered in the middle of Lake Michigan. His initial investigation of the meager evidence leads him to suspect a complex and disturbing involvement of suspects nowhere near the norm for such a killing. He brings in an outside consultant to help him understand the peculiarities pointing him in a direction of accountability Elizabeth Brumer refuses to accept. In the meantime, certain phenomena occur that have everyone thinking the victim might be the cause of miracles.

This is smart fiction, written by new and upcoming author, Mary Glynne. In the tradition of the genre conducive to readers who enjoy crisp narrative and fast-paced investigative recounting, Lady of the Lake takes the common crime of murder and puts a morbid spin on it. With a fluid evolution of the body’s discovery, to the climactic end of discovering the killers and their frightening motivations, this story unveils questions only a reader’s personal faith can answer.

Make no mistake about it; this is not your pastor’s Christian fiction. On the contrary, it is sure to draw some divisive criticism for the direction it takes. However, Mrs. Glynne has kept the storytelling to a neutral tone, and it is only the subject matter that will cause some friction among certain venues of interest.
