The Girls of Lake Evelyn is a captivating tale that delves into the realms of love, family, women, secrets, and mystery, set amidst the lush and tropical surroundings of north Queensland. This captivating story will entice readers who have enjoyed the works of Lucinda Riley and Kate Morton.

In 1958, Vivienne George, a renowned It-girl, finds herself on the run, fleeing her impending wedding. Seeking solace, she retreats to a secluded lodge nestled within the breathtaking rainforest of tropical North Queensland. To her relief, the small farming town lies far from the high society she has left behind.

At the tranquil Lake Evelyn, Vivienne meets Josie, a larger-than-life character who captivates her with her warmth and charisma. However, beneath the surface of this quiet and close-knit community, secrets and mysteries lurk. Vivienne soon discovers that over a decade earlier, Celeste Starr, a beautiful actress, tragically met her demise in the lake's dark waters, casting a curse that has haunted the girls of the town ever since.

Driven by a fascination with Celeste's story, Josie decides to stage a play about her death, with Vivienne in the lead role. This decision sets off a chain of unsettling events that intertwine the lives of the girls and threatens to unravel the town's peaceful facade.

As Vivienne embarks on a journey of self-discovery and confronts her past, she realizes that the girls of Lake Evelyn are not only bound by the curse but also by the deep-rooted secrets and betrayals that have shaped their lives. With Josie's support, they must work together to break free from the curse and embrace their true identities.

Through their struggles and triumphs, The Girls of Lake Evelyn explores the complexities of love, friendship, and the power of forgiveness. It is a story that will leave readers eagerly anticipating the resolution of the mysteries and the ultimate fate of the characters.
