Neighbours

A Heartwarming Tale of Friendship and Resilience in the Face of Disaster

Neighbours is a poignant novel of friendship, support, trust, and love by the world's favourite storyteller, Danielle Steel. It explores what it takes to bring people together in times of crisis.

Meredith White, once one of Hollywood's most recognizable faces, has shut herself away in her San Francisco mansion for the past fifteen years, haunted by a personal tragedy that cut her career short and alienated her from her family.

When a devastating earthquake strikes the city, plunging it into chaos, Meredith doesn't hesitate to invite her now homeless neighbours into her largely undamaged house as the recovery begins. From the respected doctor to the beautiful young woman whose boyfriend views her as a rich man's toy, to the brilliant concert pianist in his eighties, each has a story and a closely guarded secret that will slowly be revealed.

As strangers become friends and relationships are forged, they support each other through not just the aftermath of the earthquake, but their own personal crises. Meredith finds herself venturing back into the world, seeing her isolation, estranged family, and even her career in a whole new light. And thanks to the suspicions of one of her new acquaintances, a shocking truth in her own life is exposed. . .
