What you expect from a 4 star book. Boring at times, but overall great.

Sam Hunter's parents suddenly come into money and decide to move to a more upmarket neighbourhood. When they arrive his parents don't notice anything wrong, but Sam is sure that something strange is going on as their neighbours are acting weirdly placid and all seem to have some sort of cold. At school, Sam makes friends with Liam and Jo and surprisingly with the beautiful, perfect, Emma Greenhill. The Greenhills live across from Sam and he can see their house from his bedroom window, and as the strange occurrences begin to increase, he wonders if the Greenhills are behind them.
This is one of the creepier Red Eye series books, and is was rather good. There's a sense of unease from the first page, and one or two surprises further on. Sam is a protagonist that the reader can empathise with and this draws you into the story. It is macabre in some places so if you are squeamish at all, be warned.
