The Hadley Cove Files
Her ex just moved to town. Her marriage is cracking. Her friend is missing. And Cat knows more than she's telling anyone.
Cat Walsh has a perfect life. Surgeon husband. Beautiful daughter. A home in the best part of Hadley Cove. Except her marriage is dying, and she knows it.
When her college ex moves back to town, something inside Cat wakes up. They reconnect. They confess. It's just texting, she tells herself. Just an emotional connection. Just until she realizes it's more.
Then her friend Melissa disappears. And Cat understands that her choices have consequences. That someone is in danger because of her. And that she's been lying to everyone—including herself—about what she knows.
What did she do? What does she know? And how long can you keep a secret before it destroys you?

I thought my husband was having an affair.
I had proof.
Late-night texts from “J.”
Missing hours.
Hotel charges he couldn’t explain.
So I did what any reasonable woman would do.
I started watching him.
Tracking his phone.
Following his car.
Building a case, piece by piece.
And then I met her.
Gemma Holloway—my beautiful, lonely neighbor with secrets of her own. When she confesses she thinks her husband is cheating too, we make a pact:
We’ll find the truth. Together.
But the deeper we dig, the less anything makes sense.
Two husbands.
Two lies.
One name that connects everything.
And the more we uncover… the more I start to wonder:
What if we’re not the victims?
What if we’re the problem?
Because in Hadley Cove, suspicion spreads fast.
Friendships crack.
Marriages unravel.
And once you start looking for betrayal…
You’ll find it.
Even if it was never there.
The Neighbor is a psychological thriller about obsession, paranoia, and the dangerous stories we tell ourselves when we stop trusting the people we love.
Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, domestic suspense, and twisty “was it ever real?” endings.
I’ve spent twenty years helping people.
Listening. Healing. Keeping a professional distance.
Then Nancy walked into my office.
She was fragile. Terrified. Completely alone.
She said her brother had destroyed her life.
I believed her.
And I knew I could save her.
At first, it was small things.
A call after hours.
A hand held a little too long.
A promise no therapist should ever make.
But the more she needed me…
the more I needed her.
Then Nancy disappeared.
No goodbye. No warning. No trace.
Now there’s a complaint filed against me.
My career is over.
And the police are asking questions about a dead woman… and a past I’ve spent years burying.
Because Nancy didn’t just choose me at random.
She knows what happened that night.
She knows what I did.
And I’m starting to realize something far worse than losing my license—
I was never her therapist.
I was her target.
I help women escape dangerous men.
That’s who I am. That’s what I do. I run a domestic violence shelter. I save lives.
So when a woman connected to my friend group shows up at my door—bruised, terrified, begging for help—I don’t hesitate.
I move her to the top of the list. Break protocol. Pull strings. Because some women need saving more than others.
But while I’m busy rescuing her… I ignore someone else. Another woman. Quieter. Easier to overlook.
The one who actually needed me. And by the time I realize what I’ve done—it’s too late.
Because saving one woman… might have cost another her life.

I was supposed to be dead.
That’s the story my friends told. The story they needed. But I’ve been watching them. For years.
Because the truth is… we all buried something that night.
A body. A lie. A secret that never stayed buried.
Now I’ve brought them back together. One house. One table. One final chance to tell the truth.
But I’m not the only one who’s been watching. Someone else has been waiting for this moment. Someone who knows exactly what we did. Someone who wants revenge.
And when the truth comes out… not all of us will survive it.

The Hadley Cove Files
Five women. Five lies. One town that never forgets.
In Hadley Cove, secrets don’t stay buried. They fester. They spread. They destroy.
A harmless lie to a husband. A suspicion that turns into obsession. A patient who crosses the line. A rescue that comes too late. A secret buried twenty years ago…
Each woman thought she was in control. Each woman believed her choices were justified. Until everything unraveled.
Because in Hadley Cove, the truth isn’t what ruins you—it’s the lies you tell yourself along the way. And by the time the truth comes out… it’s already too late.
