Summary

How much do you know about the couple next door?

When Emily and Ben move in next door to Dr Burman and his wife, Anita, they are keen to get to know their new neighbours. Outgoing and sociable, Emily tries to befriend the doctor’s wife, but Anita is strangely subdued, barely leaving the house, and terrified of answering the phone.

When Emily goes missing a few weeks later, Ben is plunged into a panic. His wife has left him a note, but can she really have abandoned him for another man? Or has Emily’s curiosity about the couple next door led her straight into danger?

A gripping, sinister thriller with a twist you won’t see coming from the international best seller Lisa Stone.

Truly gripping

I listened to this book in one sitting. Hooked from the very first chapter, my heart racing willing the characters to pick up on the clues. Chilling right to the very end. If you like thrillers you won’t be disappointed.

A bit far fetched, gruesome, but very good,

This story is very imaginative, if a bit far fetched. It was quite gruesome in parts and really made me cringe! Dr Ahmed was a horrible, narcissistic man and quite mad. His wife Alysha (not Anita as stated in the synopsis) was such an annoyingly cowardly, wimpy wingy woman I really felt like slapping her. I wasn't too sure how I felt about the ending - it could give way to a sequel?
The narration is excellent I must say. The narrator is so good at putting on a different voice or accent for each character.
Well worth listening to.

What a story!

I have never wanted a book to hurry to the end, but never end at the same time! The suspense was well penned. The narrator was fantastic!
