Synopsis
Everyone in this quiet lakeside community knows that Alva's father killed her mother, all those years ago. There wasn't enough
proof to arrest him, though, and with no other family, Alva's been forced to live with her mother's murderer, doing her best to
survive until she can earn enough money to run away.
One of her chores is to monitor water levels in the loch-a task her father takes very seriously. Their family has been the guardian
of the loch for generations. It's a cold, lonely task, and a few times, Alva can swear she feels someone watching her.
But the more Alva investigates, the more she realizes that the truth can be more monstrous than lies, and that you can never
escape your past . . .
