Some house flippers make a mint. Some lose their shirts. Others seek revenge. Thirty-something Bostonians Harley Hendrix and her husband, Jon, won the real estate lottery—twice. First, they landed a run-down forty-acre mountain retreat in the Vermont ski town of Snowden for a mere $32,000 in unpaid taxes. Then, the couple were selected out of thousands of applicants to document their rehab story in gushy installments on To the Manor Build, a wildly popular home reno app. But the house’s low, low price comes with a caveat. Kyle Benoit, the original owner, is such a feared local presence that none of the townspeople dared show up at the auction, which is how the Hendrixes landed the winning bid. When a wrathful Kyle was evicted, kicking and screaming, he vowed to make Harley and Jon pay. None of this, of course, was revealed to the powers that be at To the Manor Build. Nor could Jon and Harley come clean when the app chose to feature their renovation, offering free superior materials, topnotch appliances and instant celebrity. So, they simply install security cameras, change the locks, buy a gun and hope for the best. Though Harley quickly becomes one of To The Manor Build’s most popular “manor-splainers,” sharing every decision, setback and success with her 50,000 devoted followers, deep down she loathes the isolation of Vermont. On top of that, she’s nervous about living out in the woods when Jon goes to Boston for work, and especially worried Kyle might return and make good on his threats. From a busybody local realtor with an eye for married men to the estranged ex-wife of the home’s original owner, Harley is surrounded by friends and foes—and not sure which is which. As her life becomes increasingly idyllic on the outside, she’ll start to wonder who she can trust in this picturesque town—and if a murderer might be lurking behind every door.
