About this audiobook
A chilling horror novel set on Lake Superior, Going to the Six follows a documentary crew investigating a sunken speakeasy only to uncover a terrifying mystery that blurs memory, madness, and the supernatural.
When acclaimed documentary filmmaker Owen Wheeler leads a four–person crew aboard a Michigan DNR research vessel to investigate the wreck of the Keuka—a floating speakeasy long lost beneath the cold, black waters of Lake Superior—he believes he’s chasing history. What they bring back instead is something far stranger.
Told through fragmented footage, blog journals, news clippings, and Owen’s own testimony from inside a psychiatric facility, this haunting novel unfolds across two timelines: the ill-fated expedition, and the haunted present. Just as the record fractures, so too does Owen’s grip on what truly happened aboard the vessel.
Locals whisper of an old superstition—six signs that come before a person loses their mind. Did the crew uncover a secret buried with the Keuka? Or are Owen’s memories a labyrinth of guilt, grief, and madness?
A story of truth versus memory, the collapse of time, and the thin seam between reality and delusion, Going to the Six drags the reader down into the depths—where silence presses in, light cannot reach, and dread waits patiently in the dark.
