THE PEOPLE NEXT DOOR: A gripping psychological thriller from the no. 1 bestselling author

Product Information

I actually forced myself to slow down reading it, rather than consuming the book in one sitting, because I was enjoying it so much. On top of that, both families had pet dogs, and I loathed the way they were used as pawns to exert revenge.

Hoping for a fresh start in a new area, they are thrilled to get the house for a bargain, Ellie reasoning it is cheap because there is a lot of work to do on it. Then things start to unravel when Salma witnesses her neighbour Tom knock over their ‘Black Lives Matter’ banner. However, Ash has held something back from Ellie, a big secret that has to do with the house and it's former occupants. Keri Beevis is one of the few authors where I have successfully managed to read all of her releases.

In the end, this was not a hill worth dying on but one worth walking down however that is one of the things for readers to think about, making this one a great one to think deeply about. Once a dramatic turn of events occurred about halfway through, I found myself racing to the end to find out how everything played out. I thought I knew who were the good guys and who weren't but the lines blurred as misperception and prejudice go both ways. In fact, one of the things I love most about Abdullah's stories is that she sets her Readers up with space to do some critical thinking. I know this won't work for everyone, but for the Readers who do end up enjoying it, I think they'll walk away feeling like they've had a memorable reading experience.

Tony Parson has moved his way up to be one of my favourite authors, and if you read this book he will be one of yours too! Although there was some tension, their first neighborhood barbeque and meeting the neighbors went okay. This was a gothic story with potential to be amazing but it was way too long and drawn out and at times I was thinking it was never going to end!

In Salma's misguided attempt at revenge, there is an altercation between Tom and Willa, his beautiful pregnant wife, and Salma and Zain.
