Everly is a young writer who lives alone. She spends her time drinking and mostly keeping to herself. So when a new couple moves in next door, it feels like the beginning of something she didn't realize she needed. Friendship. Connection. Maybe even something more.
Carolyn is warm, beautiful, and easy to talk to.
Jake, her husband, is not.
At first, it's small things. The way he watches. The way he interrupts. The way Carolyn laughs things off that don't feel like jokes.
Everly has seen relationships like this before and knows the signs of domestic abuse. And when the arguments start getting louder through the wall at night, she becomes certain of one thing:
Carolyn needs help.
Carolyn is a psychological suspense story about loneliness, perception, and when caring about someone becomes something more.
