Such a Quiet Place by Megan Miranda

 Such a Quiet Place by Megan Miranda - 337 pages (audiobook 9 hours 32 minutes)




 "We had no warning that she'd come back. Hollow's Edge used to be a quiet placeA private and idyllic neighborhood where neighbors dropped in on neighbors, celebrated graduation and holidays together, and looked out for one another. But then came the murders of Brandon and Fiona Truett. A year and a half later, the town is simmering. The residents are trapped, unable to sell their homes, confronted daily by the empty Truett house, and suffocated by their trial testimonies that implicated one of their own -- Ruby Fletcher. And now, Ruby's back. With her conviction overturned, Ruby waltzes right back to Hollow's Edge and into the home she once shared with her friend Harper Nash. Harper, five years older, has always treated Ruby like a wayward younger sister. But now Harper's terrified. What possible good could come of Ruby's return to the scene of the crime? And how can she possibly turn her away when she knows Ruby has nowhere to go? Within days, suspicion spreads like a virus across the town. It's increasingly clear that not everyone told the truth about the night of the Truett murders. And when Harper begins receiving threatening notes, she realizes she has to uncover the truth before someone else becomes the killer's next victim.
