The Neighbor

Sometimes the friendliest smiles can hold the deadliest secrets...The Neighbor is a pulse pounding psychological thriller by the bestselling author of Everybody Ain't Your Friend and The Quiet Ones series.
At just 24, Trey is ahead of the game. He’s the first in his crew to buy his own home, leaving behind his mother’s house and stepping into independence. To celebrate, he’s hosting a housewarming party—a chance to show off his new place, reconnect with friends, and mark the beginning of his fresh start.
But life in his new neighborhood isn’t as perfect as it seems.
Enter Mrs. Pearl—a charming, elegant woman with a magnetic personality and a smile that hides more than it reveals. At 64, she’s the kind of neighbor who knows everyone’s business and doesn’t hesitate to get involved. From the moment Trey moves in, Mrs. Pearl’s warmth and attention seem harmless—at first. But as she begins showing up unannounced, offering unsolicited advice, and asking questions that cut too deep, Trey starts to feel uneasy.
What begins as neighborly kindness takes a darker turn when Mrs. Pearl’s interest in Trey becomes more personal—and obsessive. As her seemingly innocent gestures escalate into something far more sinister, Trey finds himself trapped in a web of charm, manipulation, and secrets that threaten to unravel his new life.
In this gripping tale of suspense and psychological tension, Trey must navigate the fine line between neighborly kindness and dangerous obsession… before it’s too late.
A pulse-pounding drama full of twists and turns. This series is fast-paced, straight to the point, and packs a powerful punch that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
