In Alyssa Cole's unflinching thriller, members of a historically Black Brooklyn neighborhood begin disappearing from their highly desirable brownstone homes, only to be replaced by wealthy White residents.  Longtime Black resident Sydney teams with her new White neighbor Theo, who has secrets of his own, to discover that the horrifying truth behind the disappearances is an all too familiar story of systemic and economic racism.
