Fear Thy Neighbor: A Riveting Novel of Suspense
A thrilling new book from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of No Way Out, that fans of Nora Roberts and Rachel Caine won't want to miss! One woman's picture-perfect island sanctuary reveals itself to be filled with dangers in this exciting page-turner…
At twenty-nine, Alison Marshall is ready to find a place to call home. With no family and no ties, she's drifted from one small Florida town to another since high school, working odd jobs, saving hard, and building a nest egg. Once she finds the right place to settle down, she'll know. And when she reaches beautiful Palmetto Island, she thinks she may have found it.
The small, close-knit island community seems to have everything Alison needs. On a hunch, she contacts the island's only realtor, and learns that an old beach house is on the market. Miraculously, it's in her budget, and Alison takes it as another sign that she's in the right place.
At first, home is everything she hoped it would be. But as days turn into weeks, she uncovers a dark side to this supposedly peaceful haven. The locals have a secret, and once Alison discovers what it is, she faces a stark choice. She can stay and join them-or escape. But leaving brings its own risks, and Alison is starting to wonder if coming to Palmetto Island is the last mistake she'll ever make . . .

Good storyline and fast pace. Somewhat unbelievable but fiction often is. I was abit disappointed that the book wasn't longer.

I liked the absence of curse words, and the story moved fairly quick. There were, however, a few details that took away authenticity. For example, Ali meeting with a real estate agent and buying the house within a couple of days - no formalities like a deed company, signing papers with the seller, inspections, etc. And she started pulling up shrubs to clear the drive before she bought the house! Pretty sure that would be trespassing and vandalism. Overall the main character was not very believable. She just about shoots a man’s head off because he gets too close but then later she starts falling for another guy that she knows virtually nothing about. She always stays one step ahead of the grim reaper. There were several places the storyline needed more depth. Still, I would like to read more from this author.

Enjoyed the book and the believable attractions between kit and Ali and that it ended with them as it did. Enjoyed the town on pine island as most of it was familiar tome because I live in Florida
