From the outside, the house in Lakeview Terrace looks perfect, and the Bigelows seem like the perfect family: the respected surgeon father, the glamorous, devoted mother and two beautiful children. A perfect family, in a perfect house, living their perfect lives. But perfect surfaces can hide dark undercurrents, and behind closed doors lies a very different story. Teenager Zane and his younger sister, Britt, are terrorised by their violent father and dysfunctional mother.

Zane Bigelow grew up in a beautiful, perfectly kept house in North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains. Strangers and even Zane’s own aunt across the lake see his parents as a successful surgeon and his stylish wife, making appearances at their children’s ballet recitals and baseball games. Only Zane and his sister know the truth, until one brutal night finally reveals cracks in the facade, and Zane escapes for college without a thought of looking back....

Los Bigelow aparentan ser la familia perfecta: el padre es un respetado cirujano; la madre, una devota ama de casa; y sus hijos, Zane y Britt, los adolescentes más afortunados de Lakeview Terrace, una pequeña comunidad en la cordillera azul de Carolina del Norte. Pero las apariencias engañan y la casa de ensueño de los Bigelow es, en realidad, un infierno del que parece imposible huir.
