In the summer of 1950, Carl and Elsa Swanson return to their tranquil Lake Vermilion cabin, hoping for a peaceful escape after the unsettling events of The Fox. But their knack for stumbling upon the lake's hidden truths resurfaces when Elsa reels in a human skull from the murky depths. This grisly discovery plunges them into a new, multi-generational mystery, one that stretches back decades to the roaring twenties and the dark underbelly of Prohibition-era Chicago. As Deputy Sheriff Pittella launches an investigation, Carl and Elsa find themselves drawn into the lives of the lake's long-time residents, including the enigmatic Jane Bradley, her elderly husband, Preston Bradley, and the jovial, yet secretive Irv Edgar.
