title: The House on Druid Lake
author: Adler, Isabelle
description: A new city, a new job, a new home—things are definitely looking up for Oliver Foster. An aspiring young architect, embarking on a successful career in Baltimore, all he wants is to put the pain of a broken heart and broken trust behind him. The last thing he needs is another ill-advised romantic entanglement. But despite his best intentions, Oliver can't help his growing fascination with Nym Brown, the mysterious owner of Lakeside Lodge. When Oliver rents an apartment in an old Victorian house overlooking Baltimore's Druid Lake, he expects it to be quaint and shabbily charming. But as Halloween draws near and all things spooky come out to play, Oliver becomes convinced there is more going on at Lakeside Lodge than meets the eye, aside from the faulty plumbing. His neighbors are a whole new definition of quirky, and his enigmatic, gruff landlord is both intimidating and dangerously attractive. Dark and sinister secrets lurk behind the house on Druid Lake's crumbling façade. Unearthing them might yet put Oliver's future—and his heart—on the line.
