About this book

A security guard in a Massachusetts college town probes a disturbing sexual assault case in this "gripping account of scandal and fear in outer suburbia" ( Financial Times ), the inspiration for the Netflix film.

"Sly and satiric . . . Peyton Place in the age of terror and Twitter." — The New York Times Book Review

There isn't much crime in Stoneleigh, Massachusetts, a college town, a mountain getaway for the quietly rich. So when Edward Inman, owner of Stoneleigh Sentinel security, gets a late-night alarm from the home of one of his wealthiest clients, Doyle Cutler, he does a routine check and thinks nothing more of it?until a local student claims that she was sexually assaulted that night at Cutler's house.

Edward soon finds himself drawn into the girl's story, and his investigation leads him to his old girlfriend, whose teenage son may know the truth about what happened that night. Security is a timely, wry, and riveting story of adults and children, secret lives and civic culture, suspicion and sexual hysteria.

"[Amidon] once again displays his unerring facility for sniffing out the shaky foundations of our lives." — The Washington Post
