Lake Peigneur was an actual freshwater lake in Louisiana. It was brimming with fish, and had a salt mine and an oil mine on its shores. On November 20, 1980, what began as an ordinary day on the lake, became a life-threatening nightmare.
This story grabs your attention from the get-go and doesn't let go. There is some great tension built into the story, and it just proves that truth is stranger than fiction. The pictures make the story easy to follow and I couldn't stop till I put it down. I can't believe I haven't heard of this story before, and I had to look up images of the lake when I was done. Well written and researched, this is a fascinating read.
