Neighbors and Other Dangers

Three heart-pounding, just-one-more-chapter psychological thrillers from C.G. Twiles in one box set. 1. The Neighbors in Apartment 3D: Sometimes home is the most dangerous place to be. All Cintra Coutinho wants is to win her family back. After she tells her teenage son a despicable lie, her husband asks for a trial separation. She must go six months without a single fib. That's harder than it sounds for a compulsive liar. Cintra moves in with an old college pal, and befriends the sociable couple next door, who have a young boy staying with them while his mother is "in Europe." Then she spots a note on their door: "I'm being held" written in a childish scrawl, with a drawing of a boy with a gun to his head. Add in the eerie sounds she hears through their shared wall, and Cintra suspects they've kidnapped the boy. To unravel the truth of what's happening in apartment 3D, Cintra must return to her lying ways. What she discovers proves the most dangerous people can be the ones living right next door. 2. The Last Star Standing: It takes talent to get away with murder. Piper Dunner should be America's Sweetheart. After winning the iconic talent show American Star, she's living her dream with a platinum album and millions of fans. But a series of disasters sends her back to obscurity. A decade later, she's recovered with a new husband, house, and baby on the way. Asked to audition to be a judge on the talent show's reboot, she even has a second chance at success. Then the first letter arrives. We have been watching you… We engineered your downfall. A mysterious stranger tells Piper the loss of her dream life wasn't random—a powerful cult member had put a curse on her. Impossible. Curses aren't real. But as more misfortunes happen, threatening those she loves, her baby, and her second chance, all signs point to a curse… or someone trying to drive her mad. Now the letters warn that the only way for Piper to win this time is… murder. 3. The Little Girl in the Window: Bad things come in small packages. When pregnant prom queen Misty Glass dies, no one suspects who's responsible: Romy, a fourteen-year-old loner with a desperate crush on Misty's boyfriend. Romy never meant for her "harmless" prank to turn deadly… Twelve years later, she's a successful artist living in the city when a crisis forces her to return to her rural hometown. There, she starts a relationship with the last man she should—who has no idea Romy is behind the drowning of his high school girlfriend and their unborn child. Bad lady. Horrible woman! When a pale little blonde girl with eerily blue eyes starts hurling insults through Romy's window before vanishing into the woods, Romy fears her past has returned with a vengeance. She's never told anyone about the worst mistake of her life. So how does the little girl seem to know about it? Who is she? And how to stop her before she reveals Romy's darkest secret?
