I liked this book

On the back it says: a gripping psychological thriller in which the monsters are not vampires or demons but the people who live next door. It is a nightmare that could happen to anyone.

I read it in one day! just hard to put down, but at the end be sure to read Letter from the Author because it explains some of the happenings and will make more sense before you start to criticize the ending.

Jamie and Kirsty move into their first home together in which they plan to get married and start a family. The other residents in the building seem friendly but strange things start to happen. Their neighbors seem to be targeting them with a campaign of terror. Jamie decides to fight back but at what cost? This is a psychological thriller that could happen to anyone. I found this book to be a fast-paced chilling read. It was hard-to-put-down as I needed to find out how Jamie was going to solve his problem. Mark Edwards' characters feel like real people that you could know which made the book more frightening. I'm looking forward to reading another of his books. I highly recommend this book to those who love thrillers.

A fast read only because it was great! Easy to follow along, easy to identify with the main characters. Ive lived in apartments before and know exactly how these two people must have felt being harassed by neighbors who want trouble. This was scary and very real. Probable. A lot of things that happened within the chapters, could happen to anyone.
I look forward to the next installment. It ties up a loose end from book one-Lucy's life
