Summary

What disturbing secrets surround the cold, deep waters of Lake Michigan? Sudden, violent storms and rocky shoals have claimed the lives of countless mortals foolish enough to brave the treacherous surf of Lake Michigan. But is there another, unnatural force at work? A force that spiritied away a ship's captain from a locked cabin without a trace? A force that caused a perfectly airworthy jet to fly into the waves, taking all its passengers to a watery death? Perhaps these tradegies are linked to numerous UFO sightings over the lake. Or perhaps a clue might be found in the prehistoric Stongehenge-like structures discovered deep beneath the crystaline-blue surface. Historian and storyteller Gayle Soucek explores the mysteries behind the area known as the Lake Michigan Triangle. --
