Quiet street. Perfect homes. Not so perfect lives. Hope Close: a leafy, tranquil backwater in the heart of the English countryside. But when Andy Meyer moves in, it soon becomes clear that picture-perfect homes can hide less-than-perfect lives. Fresh from rehab and with no interest in meeting his neighbours, Andy erects forbidding gates to keep the ghosts of his past--and any prying eyes--at bay. Next door, in the grandest house, Layla is unhappily married to a much older man and desperately misses her young son, who has been banished to boarding school. When lonely Nicole from over the road confides her own secret heartache to Layla, the two women form an unlikely bond--until one of them attracts the attention of their mysterious new neighbour. The only person to sense something dangerous about Andy is busybody Joan. But will her suspicions bring her more than she bargains for? As the past catches up with the residents of Hope Close, it becomes clear that the intriguing new neighbour isn't the only one with something to hide...

A strong marriage can cope with the unexpected. But can it survive the unimaginable? American nanny Eleanor was never meant to meet Alex. But when she walks into his London police station to report a stalker, everything changes for them both. He's convinced he can protect her from anything and anyone. She hopes her darkest days are behind her. As they settle into their life together, two hundred miles away another young couple faces an uncertain future. Christie knows Paul is a decent man, but she can't shake a clairvoyant's warning: 'Never trust your husband . . .' When a work trip tests their bond, will she overcome her fears for the sake of her family? Ten years later, both couples are still together, for better or worse. But as doubts and resentments begin bubbling steadily to the surface, all four of them start to question the choices they've made. At least the secrets they all brought into their marriages are still well hidden. For now.
