Middle of the night. Riley Sager. 2025.

On July 15, 1994, ten-year-old Ethan fell asleep in a tent next to his best friend, Billy.

In the morning, Ethan woke up alone.

Billy was never seen again.

Thirty years later, Ethan has returned to his childhood home, still desperate for answers.

Who took Billy?

Plagued by bad dreams and insomnia, he begins to notice strange things happening on his street under the cover of darkness. Someone is prowling the cul-de-sac when no one is awake to see them.

Is the culprit still out there?

This isn't a bad neighbourhood. These aren't bad people.

What if they are?
