    Synopsis

    The enthralling new novel from the 10-million-copy, No. 1 bestselling author. When Nina and Conrad move into their new home in Willow Close a body is discovered. Hurrying inside, they see horrified neighbours gather by the police cordon - one of the residents has been attacked and brutally killed in the woods. Believing someone must have seen the murderer, the police interview all the residents and soon find out that each neighbour harbours their own secrets. They are far from what they initially seem and strange, even dark, things happen behind their closed doors. Nina and Conrad had thought they'd found their dream neighbourhood. But have they moved into a nightmare?
