Widowed when his FBI agent wife was killed by a right-wing group, Michael Faraday, professor of modern history and an expert on domestic terrorism, becomes obsessed with the culture of these organisations, especially when his new neighbours, Oliver and Cheryl Lang, start acting suspiciously.
At first the Langs seem like the perfect addition to the neighbourhood. But all is not what it seems.
When Faraday’s private sleuthing turns up dark secrets from Oliver’s past, the mystery deepens and the question looms: is Faraday just consumed by fear and driven by paranoia, or has a lethal conspiracy been born on Arlington Road?
In short order, Faraday’s suspicions about his newfound friends will lead to tragic and irrevocable consequences.
Tagline: Fear thy neighbour.
