Across the Road
Genres
Overview
Author Jean Dorset has suffered from a bad case of writer's block since his first novel became a bestseller. He lives in a small apartment in Paris with his wife Michelle and, in spite of their ostensible success, the couple are having trouble making ends meet. One day they receive the utterly unexpected news that they are the sole inheritors of a wealthy neighbor, M. Guillemet, whom they have never met. Guillemet has left them his old townhouse along with all of his belongings, but with two conditions -- the first is that the dead man's papers be left untouched, and the second is that his live-in maid Clemence Richbourg remain employed at the estate. The Dorsets soon learn why they were the recipients of such strange generosity. Guillemet had set up a camera with a massive zoom lens pointing to their bedroom window. The couple is shocked and disgusted, but not enough to give up their new tony digs.

Happy Ending
A night of lackluster anniversary sex leaves longtime partners, Brynne and Ezra, with the unsettling sense that their relationship has lost its spark. Desperate for a quick fix, they decide to try a “happy ending” massage parlor––but unbeknownst to them, they chose the wrong night to visit Angel Spa. An unhinged client has become obsessed with a masseuse, stalking her––and tonight he’s reached his boiling point. His twisted desires turn violent, setting off a chain of events that thrust everyone in Angel Spa into a fight for survival. Trapped in this lurid environment with damaged and dangerous people around every corner, Brynne and Ezra will have to face something even more terrifying than a murderous stalker: their intimacy issues. If they can’t mend what’s broken between them, they’ll lose far more than their love for each other . . . they’ll lose their lives.
