Summary

When the Cutter family's next-door-neighbours, the Langleys, are gunned down in their house one hot July night, the Cutters' world is turned upside down. Could the killers have gone to the wrong house? At first the idea seems crazy, but gradually we discover that each of the Cutter family has a secret they'd rather keep buried.
