I picked up this short story because a friend recommended I check out this author. The Lake is a good short story, but a bit predictable. As others have already described the plot, I will leave it be. Though not very scary this short story would've made an excellent Twilight Zone episode. The changes which the main character undergoes throughout the story would have been even more powerful in a visual medium. Overall, I thought this was a good, well written story. As it is currently free, you really can't go wrong. Gracetown is a rural Florida location, just over the Georgia border; a hot and sticky, sleepy town - with a chilling dark undercurrent of supernatural influences - which boil to the surface in the summer. In 'The Lake' we meet a schoolteacher who's decided to take a job in Gracetown, sight unseen. We're not told exactly why she left her last position, but it's hinted right from the beginning that she might have some rather unprofessional plans concerning some of the teenage boys in her class. But things don't culminate in the way the reader might expect. The teacher is strongly drawn to the lake in back of her new house, and although she's always been a bit timid of the water, finds herself spending more and more time swimming in the murk... A very strong horror story - it would've been a full 5 stars from me if not for aucune critique | ajouter une critique
A free short story taken straight from the pages of THE MONSTER'S CORNER, an all original anthology from some of today's hottest supernatural writers, featuring stories from the monster's point of view. In THE LAKE, Abbie LeFleur, a lifetime Bostonian, who hides her scales, webbed feet, and an incredible hunger for people, has relocated to Graceville to start her life anew when she sets her eyes on a young student in her English class.

I think this story isn't really about a lake monster. See spoiler below.
