What do I remember about the murder on the lake?

Charlie Kilgore was too young to remember anything, really, about how events on the lake unfolded twenty-five years ago. He just knows what he’s been told: that his father stabbed a man to death, left Charlie’s mother critically wounded, and then disappeared, never to be seen again. Now Charlie believes there must be more to what happened.

Using the shards of the story he’s uncovered so far as the heart of a true crime podcast, Charlie returns to his hometown in the foothills of New Hampshire’s White Mountains. Old friends, family, authorities, and even collateral victims have moved on, and no one wants to dredge up what’s long forgotten. Except Charlie. He wants to know what could have transformed a quiet man into a monster. And what happened next.

But when Charlie starts asking questions of people with so much to hide, getting to the truth becomes dangerous. Because on this lake—in this family—the past isn’t dead and buried at all. In fact, it’s back with a vengeance.

What to Make of a Life

In What to Make of a Life, bestselling author Jim Collins explores how we can build a meaningful existence even when faced with “cliffs”—those sudden, life-altering transitions that leave us feeling lost in a “befuddling fog.”

Collins spent a decade researching the lives of diverse individuals, from Olympic figure skaters and rock stars to scientists and public figures. By comparing people who faced similar crises but took different paths, he developed a framework for personal renewal. The book focuses on how to:

  • Find Your “Encoded” Role: Discover work that naturally fits your DNA.

  • Navigate the Fog: Build confidence and momentum when you feel uncertain.

  • Master Your Luck: Maximize the benefits of good luck while minimizing the damage of the bad.

  • Keep the Fire Burning: Ensure your most creative years are spread across your entire life rather than fading out early.

Ultimately, Collins shares his own transformation during the study. He argues that by applying these lessons, anyone can move past life’s fracture points to build a future that is both resilient and deeply fulfilling.
