The Dinner Party - Rebecca Heath

FOUR COUPLES.
Summer 1979. In the idyllic suburban neighbourhood of Ridgefield, during a scorching heat wave, four couples gather for their weekly dinner party.

AN ORDINARY EVENING.
When Frank Callaghan checks on the sleeping children, he finds an empty crib where his four-month- old daughter Megan should be sleeping. The party-goers swear they didn't see anything but each of them has something to hide.

THE BEGINNING OF A NIGHTMARE.
Forty years later, a stranger knocks at the Callaghan's door claiming to be Megan. The family are sceptical until they see what she is holding – the blanket she was wrapped in the night she disappeared. Where has Megan been all this time?

And how well do you really know your neighbours?
