About the book:

 On the street where you live is a grasping novel from the queen of thriller, Mary Higgins Clark. The book is about a woman who is haunted by two horrifying killers separated by more than a century yet totally connected.

Coming from a distasteful divorce and trauma of being stalked. Criminal defence attorney Emily Graham( the protagonist) leaves the city of Albany in Manhattan ( New York). Longing her roots, she buys her ancestral home, a Victorian house in the town of Spring Lake, New Jersey.

(A Victorian house)

Her family sold the house in 1982, after one of Emily’s ancestor, Madeline Shapley, then a young girl disappeared.

As the house is modernised(renovated) and a pool dug, a skeleton is found and recognised as Martha Lawrence, a young Spring Lake woman who who disappeared several years ago. In her hand she held a finger bone of another woman, with a ring ( a Shapley family inheritance)
