The Considerable Distance Between Neighbors (Dynamic Narration)
A Novel of Community, Courtesy, and ConsequenceBy Shani Rashid
Length6h 36m
About this audiobook
A contemporary literary mystery set in a suburban Charlotte neighborhood, Wyndham Woods, where the controlled order of HOA life begins to fracture after the sudden death of a longtime resident. The story follows Ada Carmichael as she settles into the community and slowly uncovers hidden tensions, financial irregularities, and long-buried personal histories connected to both residents and local development projects. What begins as quiet neighborhood observation gradually becomes an exploration of secrecy, grief, and the uneasy distance between people who live side by side but barely know each other.
