Its always the husband, isnt it
When his wife Brie vanishes from their home one night, never to be seen again, people assume Andy got away with murder. The police cant build a case against him, but still his friends and neighbours abandon him.
Six years later, Andys life is back on track, and hes settled with a new girlfriend. And when he hears his old house has been bulldozed and rebuilt, hes not bothered. Things are good.
But then one day, a woman who looks like Brie shows up at their old address, screaming Wheres my house What happened to my house before vanishing as quickly as she appeared.
And as dark suspicions resurface, Andys future depends on discovering what the hell is going on. The trick is staying alive long enough to find out
