Wish You Was Here
The back of the book says:

It was a busy day on Lake Chicopee. But it was an eclectic bunch of sightseers and tourists that had the strange, local residents rubbing their hands with delight. There was Calvin Dieb, the lawyer setting up the property deal, who'd lost his car keys; there was Linda Lachuk, the tabloid journalist who could smell that big, sensational story; there was dumpy Janice DeWeese, who was just on a walking holiday but who longed for love. But most promising of all, there was Wesley Higgins, the young man from Birmingham, England, who was there because he knew the legend of the ghost of Okeewana.
All he had to do was immerse himself in the waters of the lake and he would find his heart's desire.

Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Thank you for calling Kurt Lindqvist Associates. There's no-one in right now to take your call, but if you leave your name, your number and details of the supernatural entity you want killed after the tone, we'll get back to you as soon as we can. Bleep.
