# Confessions of the Dead: A Thriller - Paperback

[**Report copyright infringement**](https://reportcopyrightinfringement.com/)

by **James Patterson** (Author), **J. D. Barker** (Author)

**In this thrilling novel from the authors of the bestselling _Death of the Black Widow_, the police of a small New England town are confronted with a baffling series of crimes.**

The dead tell no tales ... unless they swam in Cemetery Lake.

Hollows Bend, New Hampshire, is a picture-perfect New England town where weekend tourists flock to see fall leaves and eat breakfast at the Stairway Diner. The crime rate--zero--is a point of pride for Sheriff Ellie Pritchett.

The day the stranger shows up is when the trouble starts ...

The sheriff and her deputy investigate the mysterious teenage girl. None of the locals can place her. She can't--or won't--answer any questions. She won't even tell them her name.

But while the girl is in protective custody, the officers are called to multiple crime scenes leading them closer and closer to a lake outside of town that doesn't appear on any map.
