DARK LAKE a Winner at the LOS ANGELES BOOK FESTIVAL!
LOS ANGELES – The 2011-2012 Los Angeles Book Festival awarded “Dark Lake” by Louise an Honorable Mention at its annual competition honoring the best of world publishing.
Allie Armington Goes to the Adirondacks
Monday, October 31st, 2011Author Louise Gaylord Discusses Writing and Her New Book Dark Lake
Saturday, October 15, 2011
In a secluded compound of cabins above a lake in the Adirondacks, a young private investigator and assistant district attorney from Texas finds a beloved family member dead, a string of cover ups by corrupted officials, and a cousin in love with a dangerous man.
So begins Dark Lake, the fourth book in the suspenseful Allie Armington murder mystery series by award-winning author Louise Gaylord, who lives and writes in both Santa Barbara and her hometown of Houston, Texas. A spunky and curious young woman with a taste for adventure and a knack for finding out the truth, the character of Allie was originally inspired by Gaylord’s time on a grand jury in Houston. The assistant DA was “so lousy,” recalled Gaylord, that she thought “a woman could do this so much better.”
Q & A with Louise Gaylord
Monday, October 24th, 2011Q & A with Louise Gaylord, author of the Allie Armington mystery series, including her newest release …
Q: Tell us about your newest Allie Armington mystery novel Dark Lake and what readers can expect the beloved protagonist to encounter in the book.
A: Dark Lake is set in the Adirondacks, where Allie finds her aunt has been murdered. The people in the small compound want to believe it was a suicide, as do the police, to keep it out of the press. Frustrated by the lack of police involvement, Allie sets out to solve the crime on her own.
Allie inherits her aunt’s cottage, much to her drug-addicted cousin’s dismay, and sparks a new romance with a guy working with the county drug enforcement. She remembers him from when she visited the camp as a little girl. He’s cute … but she’s just not sure about him.
THE LATEST ALLIE ARMINGTON MYSTERY IS HERE!

LOUISE GAYLORD’S LATEST ALLIE ARMINGTON MYSTERY!
Now Available!
Summer at the Lake just isn’t what it used to be.
This year, it’s murder. After 15 years, Allie Armington returns to her aunt Sallie’s idyllic cottage retreat in the Adirondacks where she spent most of her childhood summers. Until the accident, that is. But instead of the happy reunion she’s anticipating, she finds Sallie’s mangled body.
The close-knit community of July 4th to Labor Day residents at the Hotanawa compound tries to portray the tragedy as a suicide to keep things out of the news. Allie knows better. There’s been foul play, yet the cops have all but closed the case.
To clear her aunt’s reputation, Allie’s got to navigate her way around a compromised police department, wealthy neighbors with agendas, a cousin who’s turned into a meth head, and a drug conspiracy that just gets stranger and stranger—especially since the handsome drug cop is an ally in one moment and a suspected conspirator the next.
Populated with neighbors you love to hate, childhood ex-crushes you’d hate to love, and family and friends who promote more problems than solutions, Dark Lake brings us an up close look at summer life in the Adirondacks and Allie at her best.
