Publisher's Summary

Home can be the most dangerous place....

In a small London bedsit, a radio is playing. A small dining table is set for three, and curled up on the sofa is a body....

Jenn is the one who discovers the woman, along with the bailiffs. All indications suggest that the tenant—Sarah Jones—was pretty, charismatic and full of life.

So how is it possible that her body has lain undiscovered for 10 whole months?

What the critics say

"I loved this engrossing and affecting novel which is beautifully written and deeply insightful about mental health and loneliness." (Roz Watkins, author of Devil’s Dice)

"An atmospheric, page-turning portrait of isolation and mental fragility combining heart-rending sensitivity with sock-it-to-'em twists." (Helen Monks Takhar, author of Precious You)

"A clever and gripping psychological thriller.... It draws the reader into the character’s mind and onwards to a startling conclusion." (Jenny Quintana, author of The Missing Girl)

Ridiculous

I couldn’t make it past Chapter 12. The story was painful. Huge overreaction to a dead person that the main character didn’t know. Move on already. Not the main character’s problem and I didn’t care to listen to her self imposed issues and stress.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
