“Razor sharp, sexy, and utterly absorbing, The Widow on Dwyer Court gripped me from the start with its unique premise and kept me feverishly turning pages until the twisted conclusion. Get ready for a wild ride of lust, domestic intrigue, and revenge. Perfect for readers who love slow-burn thrillers and dark romance.”

“If you’re after a steamy domestic thriller with a difference, then this one is for you. [The Widow on Dwyer Court] follows Kate, an erotica writer, and her husband, Matt. Kate isn’t interested in sex, so they have an open marriage, and she gets her story inspirations from Matt’s liaisons with other women. All is fine until young widow Annie arrives in the neighbourhood, at which point secrets and tensions build up to a shocking climax. This is a compelling novel, completely different to anything I’ve read recently, so if you’re bored with the standard psychological thriller tropes, then this will certainly liven up your reading! An excellent debut by an exciting new voice in the thriller genre.”

“A sensual game of suburban cat and mouse, where sex is as sharp of a weapon as a knife.”

“If you like domestic novels with unhinged behavior, a side of steam, and some pretty surprising twists, this was a blast.” 

“Incredibly clever, unique, and compelling…The Widow on Dwyer Court flips the script by combining a book within a book—one that is domestic suspense; the other, erotica. With two equally mesmerizing POVs, this wickedly funny, completely original story held me hostage from the moment I started reading. Lisa Kusel brilliantly showcases two very different women living in the same neighborhood…It’s a delicious cocktail of lust and lies that culminates in a combustible climax you won’t see coming. A riveting thriller that is unlike anything I’ve ever read before.”
