⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Brilliantly written twists and turns had me completely glued to this story until the end." - NetGalley Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "It's everything a thriller should be and unputdownable!" - BookishgirlUK on TikTok In the idyllic Mountain Meadows neighborhood, a fresh start can quickly become a fatal ending. For newcomers Chris and Zoey Hamilton, the affluent community seems like the perfect location to build a life together. Instead, history repeats itself when Zoey vanishes without a trace—just like the previous homeowner five years ago. Enter FBI Special Agent Victoria Heslin, known for her relentless pursuit of the truth. Her investigation uncovers a history of lies and betrayal festering beneath manicured gardens and picture-perfect smiles. The more Victoria digs, the clearer it the secrets in Mountain Meadows run deep, and the greatest threats aren’t lurking in the shadows...they’re hosting dinner parties, attending parent-teacher conferences, going to yoga, and waving hello from behind their perfectly trimmed hedges. One of those polite, smiling individuals will stop at nothing to keep the past buried. THE BAD NEIGHBOR is book 9 in the award-winning Agent Victoria Thriller Series by USA Today bestselling author, Jenifer Ruff. Each book features a unique investigation and can be read as a STANDALONE. “I say this every time I read a new Agent Victoria Heslin thriller, but this is the best one yet! The Bad Neighbor is a highly addictive read. Layers of mystery continue to unfold, keeping you guessing until the last page.” - USA Today bestselling author Audrey J. Cole “The Bad Neighbor by Jenifer Ruff is a gripping domestic thriller that kept me hooked and had me guessing until the very end. Highly recommend!” - H.K. Christie, Author of the Martina Monroe Thriller Series “The Bad Neighbor is a real page-turner. Great, nail-biting suspense, excellent writing, and a heart-pounding conclusion." – Addison Michael, author of the Mak and Wilton Thriller Series
