When a devious reporter wrongly accuses Lily Blake of having an affair with a prominent churchman, she becomes a pariah overnight and suffers the ultimate violation of privacy. Hounded by the press, fired from her job and robbed of all public freedom, she has no choice but to return to her home town of Lake Henry, in beautiful, rural New England.
Driven by the need to exact justice against the media that forever changed her life, Lily forms an uneasy alliance with John Kipling, also born and raised in Lake Henry. After a disastrous stint with the mainstream media, Kipling is back home publishing the local newspaper. He, too, has battles to fight and dreams to chase.
In 'Lake News', Barbara Delinsky offers an intimate look at the complex relationship between an enigmatic man and a vulnerable, besieged woman who struggle to find a new sense of community in a strange place they once called home.
