Too Close to Home
Promise Falls isn’t the kind of community where a family is shot to death in their own home. But that is exactly what happened to the Langleys one sweltering summer night, and no one in this small upstate New York town is more shocked than their next-door neighbours, the Cutters. They visited for the occasional barbecue and their son was friends with the Langleys’ boy.
