When the Cutter family's next-door-neighbours,the Langleys, are gunned down in their house one hot July night,the Cutter's safe, predictable existence is instantly shattered.For violent death to have come so close to them is as shocking as it is inexplicable.The Langleys were an ordinary suburban family.If they could be the victims of an act of random brutality,then surely nobody's safe.But although he feels guilty for thinking it,Jim Cutter can take one positive from the tragedy: if the Langleys were just in the wrong place at the wrong time,then at least lightning is unlikely to strike twice in the same spot. Unless,of course,the killers went to the wrong house . . . At first the idea seems crazy.But with no other plausible explanation for the Langley slayings,Jim finds himself wondering if his own family could be harbouring secrets he knows nothing about - and so begins a disturbing journey of discovery that will turn the Cutter's world upside down.But the final secret,the secret that could save them or destroy them,is in the one place nobody would ever think of looking . . . Since April 2013,again in March 2015,and in this year too, the UK Post Office has altered it's Pricing in Proportion template,altering its prices, weight allowances,dimensions and lowered its qualifying compensation rates too!
