The longed-for peace and solitude is stifling. And the house, so artfully put together by her husband, has a strange vibe.

I absolutely loved it!’ ‘Very occasionally, a novel that's not in the crime genre grips me as much as the best thrillers do. The People at Number 9 held me in its vice-like grip from first page to last. It's a fascinating analysis of an unhealthy friendship based on insecurity and delusion, and the characters are so vividly drawn that I sympathised with them and despaired of them in equal measure’ ‘Excruciating yet unputdownable, this is domestic noir at its most gripping’ ‘Beady insights into female friendship. Irresistible, excruciating and unputdownable’ ‘Incisively witty, painfully true… draws the reader in with the voyeuristic joy of gossiping about our friends and neighbours, with a shocking sting in the tail to catch us all out’
