Alyssa Cole wrote a thriller in 2020 called No One Is Watching. This book involved a conspiracy surrounding the gentrification of Brooklyn and what really happened to all those people who moved to the suburbs. Sydney Green is born and raised in Brooklyn and now runs a walking tour to try and hold onto the past as the area changes around her. She is joined by Theo and soon the two find that there may be much more to the neighborhood “revitalization” than they could have ever imagined.
