About this listen

DISCOVER THE MOST UNPUTDOWNABLE PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER OF THE YEAR. WINNER OF THE JOFFE BOOKS PRIZE 2023.

Love thy neighbour. Fear thy neighbour.

I thought moving to this quiet cul-de-sac was the fresh start my husband and I needed, escaping the noise of our cramped flat in Hounslow. I left India and all that was familiar for a new life with him in England.

But my husband works all hours, leaving me alone in a house that doesn’t feel like a home.

Our neighbours notice the bruises on my arms. They draw the obvious conclusions.

They seem kind, but they’re hiding something.

I just can’t shake the feeling that someone is always watching me . . . waiting.

My husband’s working late. Again. That’s when I see it.

A face pressed to the glass.

A hand waving.

It couldn’t be. Could it?

This utterly gripping and unputdownable psychological thriller full of shocking twists is perfect for fans of Steena Holmes, Freida McFadden, E.V. Seymour, Dandy Smith, Sonya Bateman or Nicole Trope.

Mediocre

Annoying narration, unlikeable characters and repetitive prose. Managed to finish it but glad it's over.

Good narration

I found it to be a bit of a slow and repetitive story but the narration was good. filled some time but glad I didn't pay for it.

Did NOT go the way I anticipated!

Great performance with an unexpected plot twist but the writing really stood out because of the descriptions of scenery and food. I was engrossed!

Enjoyable but slow

The story could easily be told in half the time. Really enjoyed the cultural descriptions and the story was good overall but it keeps repeating the same things over and over.

An enjoyable listen

I thought it was read well and the accents helped. An interesting story, with twists that involved characters in an unexpected way. Well worth a listen.

sorry not for me

far too slow to get anywhere. After listening for what felt like hours I decided to give up because I couldn't care about any of the characters. I might have made a big mistake but I don't think so.
