What to expect
Some places never let go of the past…
My stunning new apartment in West Hampstead is amazing. The price was a steal, the views are amazing and the layout to die for.
I’d already signed on the dotted line when I heard about the murder. About Ariana, the girl before me.
When I meet the neighbours, I finally understand the funny looks. They’ve been watching my every move.
Because Ariana looked just like me.
And when I find out the guy I’m dating knew her too, the doubts build. There are just too many coincidences.
Her killer was never caught, and I have a gnawing dread they're still nearby. Could I be next?
