Welcome to the neighborhood. Collin Entman has been found in a pool of his own blood on the kitchen floor of his home in Green Springs, Missouri. Was it a crime of passion, revenge, or simply a tragic accident for which no one is to blame but Collin himself?
Audrey and Jim Bowman are the latest to move into the neighborhood and, since then, Audrey has felt as though she’s entered a sort of secret club; of which sometimes she’s treated like a thrilling new member and sometimes an outsider to be regarded, but not included. Her worries have grown over what has been going on under the surface in this seemingly benign suburban setting.
She is now alone in her suspicions of nearly every neighbor on her block in Northwood Estates. Her quest to join, and ultimately rule, the inner circle in her new neighborhood had just begun when she started to witness strange events. Jim has been too busy with his career, and his own secrets, to join his wife in her fears.
No way around it - Audrey is a social climber. Motivated by her own inner desire for belonging and perfectionism, Audrey wants to leave her past behind and mold Northwood Estates into the place she dreamed it would be: The place where she and Jim would finally begin the life they were meant to lead together; he as a successful businessman and dedicated father; she as the perfect homemaker, mother and citizen of the community.
Audrey, the very definition of a control freak, is suddenly on a path to discover more than just the answer to the mystery at hand: what happened to Collin? She’s uncovering the truth about herself; her insecurities about her marriage and her station in life, but will she ever be truly satisfied? Can a seasoned “climber” separate fact from her own fiction and learn to be happy in a life that isn’t exactly as she’d planned?
