Chez nous

The familiar suburban setting feels so relatable but also sinister in how it hides so much. I wonder what motivated the author to choose this environment for such a suspenseful story.

The shift from neighborly civility to suspicion was so rapid—I’m curious if that reflects real life or was a deliberate choice to heighten tension.

The alternating perspectives kept me guessing, but I wonder if the pacing would have been different with a linear timeline or if this format was essential.
