Do you know the language of the birds?
Summer, 1979: A lonely young woman housesitting for her aunt and uncle in an isolated bohemian enclave finds troubling reminders of a past family tragedy surfacing in odd and unsettling ways. When a mysterious man moves in next door, Dovey hopes for a romance like the ones in the novels she secretly devours. But a dark truth hidden since childhood erupts shockingly in a violent otherworldly intrusion, catapulting her into a desperate struggle for her life and sanity.
Set in a haunted northern California landscape populated by poets, New Agers, stoners, and burnouts, Neighbor George is a deeply atmospheric story of psychological horror enacted in the liminal space where the natural collides with the supernatural.

“I loved this. Funny, smart, upsetting, claustrophobic, occasionally frightening. Tonally, it reminded me of Shirley Barrett’s excellent The Bus on Thursday, but this is a far less cynical book and one that works hard to earn its resolution. I don’t know why no one seems to have found it, but I hope more people do.”
