Publisher's summary
Mrs Betty Clerihew has an exciting secret in her spare room. Torchwood are hiding out there, watching the comings and goings of her estate. Apparently, monsters are living on the cul-de-sac.
Plot
Orr is staying in Mrs Clerihew's spare bedroom with Ng, to whom they learn a temping agency has sent detailed notes on the residents of the cul-de-sac. The two of them spy on the neighbours and watch Mrs Clerihew, who has been receiving telephone calls from somebody with a childish voice and comes to believe that they are watching Hakan, putting things through their letterboxes despite her claiming to be going to the post box. Hakan's property is vandalised and he and Mrs Clerihew assume that Orr is the vandal after they attempt to clean up a painted message labelling him a paedophile.
