The Neighbors
<P>Andrew Morrison sacrificed everything€"his childhood, his education, and the girl of his dreams€"to look after his alcoholic mother. But enough is enough, and now he€s determined to get out and live his life. That means trading the home he grew up in for a rented room in the house of an old childhood friend€"both of which are in sorry shape.<br /><P>The only thing worse than Drew€s squalid new digs and sullen new roommate is the envy he feels for the house next door: a picture-perfect suburban domicile straight out of Norman Rockwell, with a couple of happy householders to match. But the better acquainted he gets with his new neighbors€"especially the sweet and sexy Harlow Ward€"the more he suspects unspeakable darkness beyond the white picket fence.<br /><P>At the intersection of <I>Blue Velvet</I> and <I>Basic Instinct</I> lies <I>The Neighbors</I>, an insidiously entertaining tale of psychological suspense and mounting terror by the boldest new master of the form, Ania Ahlborn.
