Author Deborah Rine To Discuss Her First Novel, ‘The Lake’ July 14, 2013 by jennyquill Leave a Comment By Jenny Quill Author Deborah Rine will speak about her first novel, “The Lake,” at Dickinson Hall’s monthly Women’s Club meeting on Fri., July 19 at noon. This ladies-only gathering costs $15 and includes lunch followed by the author’s discussion. “The Lake” is a mystery set in Banner Bluff, a quaint Midwestern town modeled after Lake Bluff. The main character, Francesca Antonelli, is the editor of the town’s online newspaper, the Banner Bee, and was loosely based on GazeboNews’ very own Adrienne Fawcett. Here’s the plot synopsis: “It’s a perfect spring morning or is it? While jogging on the beach, Francesca Antonelli is horrified to find a little girl floating face down in the water. Now Francesca’s life has turned into a swirling nightmare of calculated murder. The shadowy intruder of her childhood has morphed into the lake monster. She must conquer her personal demons and apprehend the killer before he strikes again. As editor of the Banner Bee, the local on-line newspaper, Francesca is uniquely situated to investigate these crimes. In the background Lake Michigan looms as a mesmerizing force. Her power and beauty are not to be denied and her secrets are hers to keep.” Rine grew up in Illinois, New York and Washington D.C., and after Northwestern University, lived in Milan, Verona, Paris and Brussels. “The Lake,” which was published in April 2013, is Rine’s first novel. Dickinson Hall is located at 100 E. Old Mill Rd., Lake Forest. For more Share on facebook
