The House Across the Street

On Riverside Road, a pretty tree-lined street, Anna steps outside her front door for a breath of fresh air. Her eye catches on a light that shouldn’t be on in her neighbour’s house. Growing up, when the two families were so close, Anna used to know it better than her own.

Then Anna sees something that doesn’t look right and rushes across the road. Her scream tears through the night like a knife. Nothing will ever be the same on this perfect street again.

Inside that house, a man has been murdered. He was the popular local doctor, loved by so many families who trusted him with their secrets, their problems. Now he is dead.

Anna is devastated by his death, but she has to find out the truth: her life depends on it. Otherwise someone might find out her own secret…
