Nita Prose’s The Nosy Neighbor takes you on a journey, peeping at the neighbors, brainstorming possible scenarios about how her neighbor plans to murder her husband. Meet Marge, a busybody and a perfect example of what a nosy neighbor can aspire to become later in life.

Marge spends many of her days peeping out the window, watching the lives of her neighbors, Doris and Bob, unfold, then recounting all the information to Harold, her husband. The more Marge becomes obsessed with Doris, and her newfound hobby, flamenco dancing, the more she becomes emboldened—right into sneaking into Doris and Bob’s house for a more in depth snoop.

Will Marge’s investigations turn up an actual crime, or will she manage to make herself the object of neighborhood gossip as she becomes more unhinged the more she meddles?
