The Neighbour
Gemma Rogers
Love thy neighbour or fear thy neighbour?
For
myself and Lauren, my 10-year-old daughter No3 Beech Close was to be
our refuge after two years of hell nursing my sick mother.
In
need of a fresh start and wanting to distance ourselves from the bad
memories of my mother’s house we moved to Beech Close, a small
cul-de-sac of six houses situated around a picture-perfect green.
It seemed perfect but I had underestimated the secrets that this tightknit community shared.
Within hours of moving in my next-door neighbour Valerie made it abundantly clear we were not welcome.
I soon discovered that Valerie hadn’t welcomed the previous occupant either and she’d since disappeared without a trace.
Had I put myself and my daughter in danger moving to Beech Close?
Which neighbours, if any could I trust?
And how far would they go to keep their secret?
