The Neighbor

The Red Series

By: Tanisha Stewart

Narrated by: Drama Simpson

Sometimes the friendliest smiles can hold the deadliest secrets...

The Neighbor is a pulse pounding psychological thriller by the bestselling author of Everybody Ain't Your Friend and The Quiet Ones series.

At just 24, Trey is ahead of the game. He’s the first in his crew to buy his own home, leaving behind his mother’s house and stepping into independence. To celebrate, he’s hosting a housewarming party—a chance to show off his new place, reconnect with friends, and mark the beginning of his fresh start.

But life in his new neighborhood isn’t as perfect as it seems.

Enter Mrs. Pearl—a charming, elegant woman with a magnetic personality and a smile that hides more than it reveals. At 64, she’s the kind of neighbor who knows everyone’s business and doesn’t hesitate to get involved. From the moment Trey moves in, Mrs. Pearl’s warmth and attention seem harmless—at first. But as she begins showing up unannounced, offering unsolicited advice, and asking questions that cut too deep, Trey starts to feel uneasy.

What begins as neighborly kindness takes a darker turn when Mrs. Pearl’s interest in Trey becomes more personal—and obsessive. As her seemingly innocent gestures escalate into something far more sinister, Trey finds himself trapped in a web of charm, manipulation, and secrets that threaten to unravel his new life.

In this gripping tale of suspense and psychological tension, Trey must navigate the fine line between neighborly kindness and dangerous obsession… before it’s too late.

A pulse-pounding drama full of twists and turns. This series is fast-paced, straight to the point, and packs a powerful punch that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

The Red Series is composed of self-contained stories – they can be listened to in any order.

Very interesting plot!

In such a short story there's so much happening. Love the characters and the villain was very unexpected. Well done! I've added the whole red series to my library!!

Love The Additional Sounds

Great series... the narrators were great for this story in particular. This is the first author who incorporates additional sounds throughout the story. It really transports you to those moments in each story.

good short story

the first time I went to listen I immediately stopped it because the noise/ music that the narrator uses. I get his vision but it's very annoying. After listening to other books which I thoroughly enjoyed from the author I decided to suck up the background noises and listen.

Unexpected Plot Twist

This story was so good and had a very unexpected twist at the end. I enjoyed every moment.

edge of my set

I enjoyed this book. The Neighbor did not disappoint. Mrs. Pearl was so sweet and unhinged.
