It is on a calm summer's day that Marilyn Eagle stumbles across the body of recluse artist, Neroli Swift, in a small New Zealand lake beside her home.
Discovering Neroli creates a dilemma for Marilyn. She doesn't want the police sniffing around for fear they'll uncover who she really is and the dark secret she has hiding in her house. So she decides to keep her discovery quiet while pursuing the Lake Girl's killer. Only strange sightings and eerie phone calls that coincide with the Lake Girl's death puts Marilyn on edge.
When Sergeant Louise Ratahi receives the call of a missing artist who lives in isolation on a forest-covered hill in a cabin completely off the grid, she knows the outcome isn't going to be pleasant. No one has heard from Neroli Swift in over a week and her cabin has been completely abandoned. Yet witnesses say they have seen activity up there, the solar lights left on and smoke billowing from her pot belly stove flue.
