Overview

The quaint, coastal tourist town of Ocean Shores, Washington has one neighborhood that hides a dark secret. By day, Arial Street looks like any other neighborhood, lined with small colonial homes with well manicured lawns. Black tailed deer roam freely, allowing neighborhood children to feed them by hand and all the neighbors are friendly. However, at night, under the cover of darkness and Pacific Northwest drizzle, fiendish things happen and tourists go missing.
Christian Brown and his family are new in town. Christian's fear of being the proverbial "new kid" at school is quickly replaced by his fear of what might lay in store for him and his family when his new neighbor Jordan informs him of the activities his neighbors participate in when no one is looking... killing! All of the residents on Arial Street, Jordan claims, are copy cat serial killers, mimicking the actions of some of our nation's most notorious fiends, to include the Zodiac Killer, the Hillside Strangler, the Green River Killer, Jeffrey Dauhmer, Ed Gein, the D.C. Snipers and local legend Billy Goul.

Does Jordan just possess an over active imagination or is there truth to his accusations? He and Christian must race against the clock, gathering evidence of their neighbors' actions in order to go to the authorities. The whole while, the handsome ring leader of the group, Ted Grundy, the possible copy cat of none other than Ted Bundy has his eyes set on Christian's attractive single mother Carol. Are Christian, his mother and his little sisters Emily and Olivia safe? You decide if things are as innocent as they appear by day on Arial Street, or if it should indeed be called as Jordan refers to it due to his neighbors' alleged actions by night, Serial Street!

About the Author

Kevin E. Lake is a 2013 Yahoo Content of the Year Award Winner. Out of millions of articles per year contributed to Yahoo by more than 600,000 writers, five articles are chosen for this illustrious award, and Lake's short story "You've Come a Long Way, Soldier" which highlights the role of female soldiers in combat was one of the five chosen. His novel "From the Graves of Babes" spent six months as Amazon's #1 rated ghost novel in customer satisfaction shortly after its release.

Lake grew up in the Mountains of West Virginia. He was a sports writer for both his high school and college newspapers. He was a state champion miler in high school (1991 A-AA West Virginia State Champion with a time of 4:33.95) and he ran track at the NCAA II level in college, where he also wrote poetry and short stories for several publications.

Lake is a 1998 graduate of Fairmont State University in northern West Virginia. After college, he spent nearly ten years as a stock broker in Charlottesville, Virginia before leaving Wall Street to enlist in the Army National Guard where he became an Airborne Infantryman in his mid thirties.

Lake served honorably during a tour in Iraq as a machine gunner for a convoy security team in Mosul, Al Qaeda in Iraq's last urban stronghold. During his tour, Lake was awarded ten different distinguishable medals by the Army including the Army Commendation Medal and the Army Achievement Medal for his actions in a combat zone. He also received the Combat Action Badge, awarded to soldiers who take and/or return fire from or onto enemy forces. On Christmas day, 2008, Lake and his Company survived the largest rocket/mortar attack on the FOB (forward operating base) in Mosul in the history of the war in Iraq.

Lake is currently working on several novels as well as several short story collections. His favorite authors include Stephen King, Michael Crichton, and Mark Twain. He currently resides in the Philippine Islands with his wife and their son.
