In this neighborhood, danger lies close to home.
Karen and Tom Krupp are happyโtheyโve got a lovely home in upstate New York, theyโre practically newlyweds, and they have no kids to interrupt their comfortable life together. But one day, Tom returns home to find Karen has vanishedโher carโs gone and it seems she left in a rush. She even left her purseโcomplete with phone and IDโbehind.
There's a knock on the doorโthe police are there to take Tom to the hospital where his wife has been admitted. She had a car accident, and lost control as she sped through the worst part of town.
The accident has left Karen with a concussion and a few scrapes. ย Still, sheโs mostly okayโexcept that she canโt remember what she was doing or where she was when she crashed. The cops think her memory loss is highly convenient, and they suspect she was up to no good.ย
Karen returns home with Tom, determined to heal and move on with her life. Then she realizes somethingโs been moved. Somethingโs not quite right. Someoneโs been in her house. And the police won't stop asking questions.
Because in this house, everyoneโs a stranger. Everyone has something theyโd rather keep hidden. Something they might even kill to keep quiet.
