In the idyllic Mountain Meadows neighborhood, a fresh start can quickly become a fatal ending.

For newcomers Chris and Zoey Hamilton, the affluent community seems like the perfect location to build a life together. Instead, history repeats itself when Zoey vanishes without a trace—just like the previous homeowner five years ago.

Enter FBI Special Agent Victoria Heslin, known for her relentless pursuit of the truth. Her investigation uncovers a history of lies and betrayal festering beneath manicured gardens and picture-perfect smiles.

The more Victoria digs, the clearer it becomes: the secrets in Mountain Meadows run deep, and the greatest threats aren’t lurking in the shadows...they’re hosting dinner parties, attending parent-teacher conferences, going to yoga, and waving hello from behind their perfectly trimmed hedges. One of those polite, smiling individuals will stop at nothing to keep the past buried.

THE BAD NEIGHBOR is book 9 in the award-winning Agent Victoria Thriller Series by USA Today bestselling author, Jenifer Ruff. Each book features a unique investigation and can be listened to as a STANDALONE.

I waited till I listened to them all to leave a review. This was such a good series of books. I enjoyed them ALL. The only complaint that I have is there are no more. I rooter for Victoria and Ned from the first book. Maybe in the very very beginning I was in support over Rivera but Ned is such a lovely man that even I fell for him. I highly recommend listening to all these books. If the author reads this I just want to say bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 amazing. Also if you want to write anymore Victoria Hesslin books I won’t complain 😉

Outstanding ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love FBI, thrillers and when I stumbled on the Agent Victoria Heslin series, I could not stop listening!!! I finished book 9 on September 28 and was thrilled when I found out book 10 was dropping on 10/1... I started listening and got completely caught up and couldn't put it down... It was AMAZING!!!

Thank you Jennifer, I cannot wait for the next book in the series... Maybe a wedding???

Love this series!!!

Kind of boring and although performance was good, there were places where it sounded like it was re-recorded.

Meh
