Eastbourne, Sussex
Anna’s parents moved here when they had here and settled int o Eastbourne life from London. The properties around the area are identical: three storey Georgian houses with long back gardens and narrow outdoor passages that run from front to back between each house.
Chestnut Drive close to where she lives isn’t real, but it;s in a nice area and since it’s Christmas, there’s a feeling that the scene is particularly nice.
When Anna is targeted with messages, she’s worried bur realises that Eastbourne is a small place and she’s got strong connections here.
Beachy Head
A small unassuming British seaside town. Beachy Head is the infamous suicide spot not far from here and sadly where there is a daily patrol to try and stop those who come here to end their lives. It’s a place tinged with sadness.
SPOILER –
The story has been inspired by the story of John Darwin who faked his own death and moved to Panama with his wife, who had kept him hidden in the house.
