'Hermit of ---- Street' Summary
Delight Hunter spends her days observing her handsome but elusive neighbor from her window. Her curiosity intensifies when a fire breaks out in his house, prompting her to alert him.

As Delight delves deeper, she discovers that the seemingly ordinary house harbors a labyrinth of hidden truths. Secrets unravel, suspicions arise, and Delight finds herself ensnared in a complex mystery that challenges her understanding of her enigmatic neighbor and the world around her.Book Details
