Reviews

First, thank you to William Morrow and the author for an advanced reader copy of this book (publishes on January 18, 2022).

I really liked this book. Told via 3 alternating characters, it kept you (or, at least me) guessing until the very end. I had suspicions throughout but ended up not being correct. Also, love the short chapters.

Nora and her family (husband, Keith, 2 daughters, Stacey and Piper, and dog Kato) move from California to New York City for her husband's job. They quickly make friends with a couple down the street, Jules and Heather. Their son, Lennon, and Stacey start hanging out.

Stacey feels as though she's being watched and has seen a suspicious man watching her but she doesn't tell anyone. One night, Nora's family finds out about a horrific murder that had taken place in their home and remains unsolved.

Someone in Nora's family knows the person watching their house...and why.
