Summary

The audiobook is about two neighbors who live in houses separated by a fence with a gate in it. It was there before either of them moved in. The gate provides easy access between the two properties. One of the neighbours is an ex-war vet who lives alone, and is struggling with life and relationships after his combat experiences. The other property houses a family: a bank manager and his wife.

The husband, Michael, moves in first to take up his new role at the bank, while his wife stays on to sell the old house. In his new role, he inherits a PA who sees her new boss as a bit of challenge, in more ways than one. Katie, Michael’s wife finally settles in to life at the new home, until one morning there is an unexpected knock at the front door. Who is it, and what do they want? What happens next will change all of their lives forever.

The twists and turns in the storyline will have you wanting to know what happens next. Love, deception, deceit, planning, scheming, strength, courage, murder, revenge – the story has it all. Where will it all end, and where will they all end up? Or will it end at all?
