About this listen

The instant New York Times and USA Today best-selling debut psychological thriller you can't miss!

The perfect marriage? Or the perfect lie?

"A hair-raising debut, both unsettling and addictive.... A chilling thriller that will keep you reading long into the night." (Mary Kubica, New York Times and USA Today best-selling author of The Good Girl)

"This debut is guaranteed to haunt you.... Warning: brace yourself." (Bustle: 10 New Thrillers to Read This Summer)

"The sense of believably and terror that engulfs Behind Closed Doors doesn't waver." (The Associated Press, picked up by The Washington Post)

Everyone knows a couple like Jack and Grace. He has looks and wealth; she has charm and elegance. He's a dedicated attorney who has never lost a case; she is a flawless homemaker, a masterful gardener and cook, and dotes on her disabled younger sister. Though they are still newlyweds, they seem to have it all. You might not want to like them, but you do. You're hopelessly charmed by the ease and comfort of their home, by the graciousness of the dinner parties they throw. You’d like to get to know Grace better.

But it's difficult, because you realize Jack and Grace are inseparable.

Some might call this true love. Others might wonder why Grace never answers the phone. Or why she can never meet for coffee, even though she doesn't work. How she can cook such elaborate meals but remain so slim. Or why she never seems to take anything with her when she leaves the house, not even a pen. Or why there are such high-security metal shutters on all the downstairs windows.

Some might wonder what's really going on once the dinner party is over and the front door has closed.

From best-selling author B. A. Paris comes the gripping thriller and international phenomenon Behind Closed Doors.

I've been looking for a thriller that is exciting all the way through, not just a twist at the end. this book delivers. I almost thought it might be too scary once I found out what the plot really was, but it's just scary enough to keep reading. A satisfying story and the narrator was excellent.

This is a really really good debut novel and to me it felt like a retelling modern version of the Yellow Wallpaper which is one of my favourite short stories.
It’s scary how such characters actually exist in real like monsters dressed up as normal people
I encourage you to read it. I admire the way that the novel didn’t glorify abuse rather draws attention to it hopping the outcomes of other victims in the world not ends up the same

It was a painful story that needed to be told

When I first started reading it, I could tell how the book was going to end almost instantly. it wasn't a bad book. Maybe because when someone recommended it to me, they told me it was going to be shocking, but I just didn't really get all that attached to it.

its exactly what I expected

This book is the kind of fast-paced read that plays with your emotions. This was certainly one creepy and screwed up story.

Edge of your seat!
