Too Close To Home

In a quiet suburban neighborhood, in the house next door, a family is brutally murdered for no apparent reason. Jim and Ellen Cutter start asking, What if we're next?--and the answers aren't reassuring. Unabridged. 1 MP3 CD.

Linwood Barclay, critically acclaimed author of No Time for Goodbye, brings terror closer than ever before in a thriller where murder strikes in the place we feel safest of all. Promise Falls isna (TM)t the kind of community where a family is shot to death in their own home. But that is exactly what happened to the Langleys one sweltering summer night, and no one in this small upstate New York town is more shocked than their next-door neighbors, Jim and Ellen Cutter. They visited for the occasional barbecue, and their son, Derek, was friends with the Langleysa (TM) boy, Adam; but how well did they really know their neighbors?
Thata (TM)s the question Jim Cutter is asking, and the answers hea (TM)s getting arena (TM)t reassuring. Albert Langley was a successful, well-respected criminal lawyer, but was he so good at getting criminals off that he was the victim of revenge a" a debt his innocent family also paid in blood? From the towna (TM)s criminally corrupt mayor to the tragic suicide of a talented student a decade before, Promise Falls has more than its share of secrets. And Jim Cutter, failed artist turned landscaper, need look no further than his own home and his wife Ellena (TM)s past to know that things arena (TM)t always what they seem.
Suddenly the Cutters must face the unthinkable: that a murderer isna (TM)t just stalking too close to home but is inside it already. For the Langleys werena (TM)t the first to die and they wona (TM)t be the last.
