"'You must be our new neighbors!' Mrs. Lowell gushes and waves across the picket fence. I clutch my daughter's hand and smile back: but the second Mrs. Lowell sees my husband a strange expression crosses her face. In that moment I make a promise. We finally have a family home. My past is far, far behind us. And I'll do anything to keep it that way... I used to clean other people's houses - now, I can't believe this home is actually mine. The charming kitchen, the quiet cul-de-sac, the huge yard where my kids can play. My husband and I saved for years to give our children the life they deserve. Even though I'm wary of our new neighbor Mrs. Lowell, when she invites us over for dinner it's our chance to make friends. Her maid opens the door wearing a white apron, her hair in a tight bun. I know exactly what it's like to be in her shoes. But her cold stare gives me chills... The Lowells' maid isn't the only strange thing on our street. I'm sure I see a shadowy figure watching us. My husband leaves the house late at night. And when I meet a woman who lives across the way, her words chill me to the bone: Be careful of your neighbors. Did I make a terrible mistake moving my family here? I thought I'd left my darkest secrets behind. But could this quiet suburban street be the most dangerous place of all?"--Publisher's description.
The Chalk Man is coming ... It was 1986 when a teenage Eddie Munster helped save Waltzer girl's life. That summer was the one that changed everything. It was the one they came up with the chalk men - drawing them on the pavement in a secret code. But then the chalk men started to appear on their own volition, prophesying grisly scenes on the dusty pavement. They knew about the body in the river. And knew about Waltzer girl's corpse lying still in the wood without a head. It's 2016 and Eddie is still living in Anderbury, teaching at his old school and living with a lodger, Chloe. Life is quiet. Life is rather empty. Until the day the chalk men reappear.
