About this ebook
'An absolute rollercoaster! So many twists and turns... When I thought I'd figured it all out... BOOM! There came the ending. I'm speechless!' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
'This story is wild!! Actual mind-blowing psychological fiction that has you simultaneously shouting at the characters to stop their crazy antics, while turning pages at a rate of knots to find out what will happen next!! This is the most original book I have read in YEARS!' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
On Riddleston Road each house reaches three storeys high, with smart gabled roofs and neat garden paths unfurling from pastel coloured front doors. Wide, sash windows stare outwards from the brick facades, revealing a glimpse of beautiful interiors. And concealing dark secrets.
Today a new family has moved into number twenty-three. A family who shouldn't be there.
As Iris stacks boxes in the hallway, she knows she has made a mistake in coming here. This house will mean her son will get the future he deserves. That will make everything she's done worth it.
But someone knows Iris's secret and what she did to get her dream home... Would she kill to keep it?
A completely addictive psychological thriller with twists you just won't see coming. Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Louise Candlish and Lisa Jewell.
Everyone is gripped by The Family at No 23:
