When you've got a house to die for
Be careful who you let in . . .

Colette spends a lot of her time at Addison Square, one of the most desirable addresses in West London.

She knows the place and the people better than anyone. But the wealthy residents she works for can barely remember her name.

Which is unfortunate, because Colette knows all about them.

She sees all their secrets.

Even the ones they'd kill to protect.

Critics Review

  • Richly written and bristling with suspense. Celia Walden is masterful.

    PATRICIA CORNWELL

  • I loved Colette's relatable yet unique perspective of the privileged residents who can't even remember her name. This engaging, engrossing thriller is perfect for fans of The Maid.

    ALLIE REYNOLDS, author of SHIVER

  • Utterly enthralling. Plunges you into a world of secrets, deception and simmering menace. I was captivated from the start and didn't want it to end

    BP WALTER, author of THE DINNER GUEST

  • I read this in one sitting, captivated by Walden's astute observations of modern life and terrified by the twists that kept on coming.

    JESSICA FELLOWES, author of THE MITFORD MURDERS

  • Secrets, lies and serious property envy - this taut, twisty and tense thriller feels like peeking through every window on the street you wished you lived. Fans of Lianne Moriarty and Louise Candlish will race through it.

    ELLERY LLOYD, author of PEOPLE LIKE HER

  • Pitch-dark and witty - my favourite combination - and with bold, complex characters who, above all, feel real. Intrigue grips from the first page and the shocking reveals just keep coming. A wickedly sharp thriller about privileged lives and fatal flaws.

    CAZ FREAR, author of SWEET LITTLE LIES

  • Celia has a knack for getting into her characters' heads - and through their front doors. Intriguingly delicious.

    JANE CORRY, author of MY HUSBAND'S WIFE

  • One party; so many secrets, so many lies: The Square is a sassy, smart, brilliant, unputdownable thriller. I absolutely loved it.

    IMOGEN EDWARDS-JONES

  • An addictive read about the secrets we hide from our neighbours, and ourselves

    CLAIRE MCGOWAN

  • A fun ride . . . [The Square is] Walden's enticing follow-up to the gripping Payday.

    CRIME MONTHLY

  • A well-crafted domestic noir with some smart twists

    BEST

  • You'll be completely hooked by the characters and the unexpected rug-pull moments

    HEAT

  • Taut, twisty and thrilling, it proves conclusively that journalist Walden has a great future in crime.

    DAILY MAIL

  • The promise of her debut thriller hit, Payday, is fulfilled in this slow-cooker of a thriller that builds to lots of surprises in the end
