What to expect

** FROM THE ACCLAIMED AUTHOR OF DEAD HEAT**
One woman's secret is her neighbour's opportunity.

'Masterly' Louise Candlish
'Intelligent, twisty' OBSERVER
'Accomplished and addictive' SUNDAY TIMES

Verity Baxter has lived - quietly, carefully - in Trinity Fields all her life. Then Ailsa and Tom Tilson move in next door and everything changes. Can Verity trust what she hears through the walls?

And what about the Tilsons: should they pity their eccentric neighbour and her messy house? Or should they fear her?

Either way, like the ivy that creeps through their shared garden fence, their lives are entwined now. And the knots can only get tighter . . .

'Hard to put down' EVENING STANDARD
'This well-paced, intelligent mystery benefits from finely-drawn characters and convincing psychological tension ... take a peek at the raging traumas behind the calm masks of suburban respectability' DAILY MAIL
'A delicious study in dark psychology with a narrator who constantly keeps you guessing. This tale serves up a real emotional punch' SUNDAY MIRROR
'A taut thriller with layer upon layer of suspense and twists right to the very last page' RED
'Chilling' The I
'Engrossing psychological crime' LITERARY REVIEW

    Good Housekeeping

  • A delicious study in dark psychology, a narrator to keep you guessing and a real emotional punch

    Real People

  • Reminiscent of Virago Classics and Alan Bennett monologues, it's an accomplished and addictive addition to the great British
