Kate Granger is trying to put her life back together after her marriage ended. While staying at her parents home on the lake, she discovers a body floating in the water. A body that she recognizes from her recurring and vivid dreams. She's not sure what to tell the police because she doesn't want them to think she has psychological problems. Nevertheless, she begins to research this woman's past, and learns that the murder took place over a hundred years ago. What Kate learns will have shocking consequences for her and her family.

I really liked this story. I normally don't read this kind of book, but Wendy Webb did an excellent job blending past and present together to write a convincing and interesting story. It is poignant in many ways, and it made me laugh and cry. Plus there's a wonderful dog character named Alaska.
