AN INSTANT #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "No one does suburban paranoia like Shari Lapena." —Ruth Ware, internationally bestselling author of The Woman in Cabin 10 Maybe you don't know your neighbours as well as you thought you did . . . In a quiet, leafy suburb in upstate New York, a teenager has been sneaking into houses—and into the owners' computers as well—learning their secrets, and maybe sharing some of them, too. Who is he, and what might he have uncovered? After two anonymous letters are received, whispers start to circulate, and suspicion mounts. And when a woman down the street is found murdered, the tension reaches the breaking point. Who killed her? Who knows more than they're telling? And how far will all these very nice people go to protect their own secrets? In this neighbourhood, it's not just the husbands and wives who play games. Here, everyone in the family has something to hide. You never really know what people are capable of . . .

actual rating: 3.5 stars
pretty good build up, engaging, but repetitive and had an underwhelming ending
A solid little thriller. This author came highly recommended by someone who went through Lapena's entire writing catalog in a month, I can see why considering that once I started this book I simply did not put it down the pages just kept turning.
I did not guess who the killer was until the reveal and that's a pretty rare one for me so I have to give the author credit for that too.
