What to expect

'Brimming with hope, heart and intrigue' JESSICA RYN

'What a beautiful, compelling book! . . . I loved it' HEMA SUKUMAR

'A real hug of a book' HAZEL PRIOR

You can choose your home, but you can't choose who lives next door . . .

Twenty-five-year-old Kat Bennett has never felt at home anywhere, especially not in crumbling Shelley House. The other residents think she's prickly and unapproachable, but beneath her tough exterior, Kat is plagued by guilt from her past and looking for somewhere to belong.

Seventy-seven-year-old Dorothy Darling has lived in Shelley House for longer than anyone else, and if you believe the other tenants, she's as cantankerous and vindictive as they come. Dorothy may spend her days spying on the neighbours, but she has a closely guarded secret herself - and a good reason for barely leaving her home.

When their building faces demolition, sworn enemies Kat and Dorothy become unlikely allies in their quest to save their historic home; and even less likely detectives when they suspect that foul play is coming from within Shelley House . . .

'The inhabitants of Shelley House will stay with me for a long time' EMILY CRITCHLEY

Critics Review

  • Brimming with hope, heart and intrigue

    JESSICA RYN, author of The Imperfect Art of Caring

  • What a beautiful, compelling book! A deftly rendered story of friendship and community that would bring both a smile to your face and a tear to the eye – I loved it

    HEMA SUKUMAR, author of Minor Disturbances at Grand Life Apartments

  • Nosy Neighbours is a real hug of a book, full of dynamic characters, intrigue, courage and kindness. I loved it!

    HAZEL PRIOR, bestselling author of Away with the Penguins

  • A warm hug of a book that manages to be both joyful and heartbreaking. I loved this story of long buried secrets and a fight for justice that had me cheering and weeping. Freya Sampson’s characters were so vividly drawn I felt they were in the room with me and I know Dorothy, Kat and the inhabitants of Shelley House will stay with me for a long time

    EMILY CRITCHLEY, author of One Puzzling Afternoon
