At a secluded Vermont lake house, a woman seeking solitude finds herself drawn into the lives of her glamorous neighbors across the water. Armed with a pair of binoculars and haunted by grief, she begins to watch their every move. What starts as innocent observation turns into an obsession as she witnesses arguments, secrets, and strange behavior that hint at something sinister. When one of the neighbors vanishes, suspicion spirals, and reality itself begins to blur. What seems at first like a tale of voyeurism and marital discord transforms into something darker and unexpected, as the lake reveals its own hidden power. This psychological thriller blends unreliable narration with supernatural unease, leaving readers questioning the line between truth and illusion.
