**Dear Neighbour. I know who you are. I know what you did...**

After that summer, I swore I'd never come back to Clover Lane. But when my aunt left us her house, I couldn't say no. The last in a neat row of houses with white fences and countryside views, it was the life I'd always dreamed of for my family. They deserved it, even if I didn't.

As the last boxes are unpacked and neighbours drop by to welcome us, I see the sparkle back in my daughter Morgan's eyes and know we're safe. I won't ever let her near the woods where my best friend went missing, but welcome gifts and a coffee date with my neighbours have me feeling like we belong here. But then the first letter arrives, and my perfect new life shatters...

Suddenly, I notice curtains twitch as I unload the car and I find myself looking over my shoulder every time I leave the house. When more letters arrive and rumours poison the street, I start double-locking the doors at night. How much do I really know about the people next door? Are my children safe? Is there _anyone_ I can trust?

Someone in this close-knit community thinks they know what happened that summer. I know they're wrong, but my worst fear is realised when the last letter drops: Morgan is missing...
