A House at the Bottom of a Lake [Malerman, Josh]

The story begins: young lovers, anxious to connect, agree to a first date, thinking outside of the box.

 

At seventeen years old, James and Amelia can feel the rest of their lives beginning. They have got this summer and this summer alone to experience the extraordinary.

 

But they didn't expect to find it in a house at the bottom of a lake.

 

The house is cold and dark, but it's also their own.

Whatever they do, they will never be able to turn their backs on what they discovered together. And what they learned:

 

Just because a house is empty, doesn't mean nobody's home.
