these are the people in your neighborhood
How well do you really know your neighbors? What do you know about the husband whose wife recently left him? What do you think is really going on with that young, beautiful wife who is flirting with everyone’s husband but her own? What have you heard about the break-ins? How well do you know those people down the street?
For that matter, how well do you really know the people inside your own house?
Olivia is devastated to find out that her teenaged son has broken into a couple of houses in the neighborhood, but when her husband and neighbors get drawn into a murder investigation, she starts to wonder what is going on in her marriage, in her family, in her neighborhood.
Meanwhile, her best friend Glenda has a husband who has to travel a lot for work and a teenaged son who is drinking too much.
A woman who just moved into the neighborhood recently had her house broken into and is going around the neighborhood trying to figure out who did it and collecting other tidbits of gossip for possible future use.
And the wife that they all assumed just left her husband was found at the bottom of a lake, in the trunk of her car.
What kind of a neighborhood is this, anyway?
