Lakes don’t forget.
They hold what we give them — boats, bottles, secrets — and they never rush to return anything.
Every summer, water takes what land can’t hide.
In 2007, three people vanished on Lake Vesper, a quiet reservoir outside Northern Wisconsin. Their boat was found drifting, motor idling, no sign of a struggle. The only clue was a single waterproof camera tied to the rail.
When investigators developed the film, they found twelve photographs: still waters, sun-glare, friends smiling.
And in the last frame — a reflection that didn’t match anyone on the boat.
They call it the Lake That Took Names.
