About Murder in Mohegan Lake: Inspired by true events
A gripping thriller, Murder in Mohegan Lake pivots from present day to the iconic backdrop of high school in the 1980s. A compelling coming of age story that forces one mother to relive her deepest secret or jeopardize her relationship with her daughter. Told from multiple perspectives, each chapter provides a unique picture of the unfolding mystery. Could you ever find the words to tell your daughter that you once helped protect a killer? Debbie has been praying that day would never come. It’s May 1984- and sixteen-year-old Stacey Orlando has vanished. Her friends are unfazed at first; after all, Stacey has disappeared before. But, when days turn into weeks, the question of her returning grows increasingly grim. Enter James Dean, look-alike JJ, he knows first-hand what happened to Stacey. In a desperate panic, JJ turns to Debbie for help. But can she believe his version of events? Against her parental instincts, Debbie carefully recounts the story of why she had to move thousands of miles away from her hometown. One slip could reveal the brutal truth to her inquisitive teen daughter and risk their entire relationship. Note: The story contains under age drinking and use of marijuana. Mild sexual content.
