"Stay away from the lake," the old man warned. "The devil lives in that lake." Bradley heard him, but he was compelled to go to the lake. When Bradley Matthews' wife, Lena, died he was cast adrift. An orphan, Lena, and his friend, William Lewis, also orphans, had come together in college and from that time had been inseparable. Now, all Bradley wants to do is get away from the tormented memories of what he's lost. He sets out on a journey to a small town on the Chesapeake, a place where he and Lena had created fond memories. He hopes this will help him come to terms with his loss and enable him to get on with his life. On the way, he stumbles across the small town of Copper Cove, a town hidden on a byway off the main road; sparsely populated and friendly on the surface; he soon discovers that it hides a secret that could cost him his life.

Autorenporträt
Charles Ray has been writing fiction since his teens. He won a Sunday school magazine writing contest when he was thirteen, and having his byline on a short story published in a national publication forever hooked him on writing. During his time in the army (1962-1982) he often moonlighted as a newspaper or magazine journalist, and was the editorial cartoonist for the Spring Lake (NC) News, a weekly newspaper, during the 1970s. In addition to his writing, he was an artist/cartoonist and photographer for a number of publications, including Ebony, Eagle and Swan, and Essence, and had a monthly cartoon feature and did several covers for Buffalo, a now-defunct magazine that was dedicated to showcasing the contributions of African-Americans to the country's military history. After retiring from the army, he joined the U.S. Foreign Service, and served as a diplomat in posts in Asia and Africa until his retirement in 2012. He has worked and traveled throughout the world (Antarctica is the only continent he hasn't visited), and now, as a full time writer, continues to globetrot looking for interesting things to write about, draw, or take pictures of. A native of Texas, he now calls Maryland home.
