Ex-city planner Clate Wilkinson has just left from his meeting with our protagonist Laura Milton in which he tells her of some of the unspeakable things his crew found at the bottom of White Rock Lake almost forty years ago. She sits by herself on the hill of Winfrey Point watching the sun sink low on the horizon. Soon, a van full of young ghost hunters pulls up.

When I first began writing my novel White Rock, one of my main goals was to strive to be as authentic as possible. Even though I was writing a fictional book, I wanted to use real stories from real people, get a personal view of the urban legend, and see what compelled these accounts. I let everyone in my universe know that I was looking for people interested in being interviewed about their experiences with the lake as well as the ghostly urban legend associated with it.
