Publisher's Summary

From the author of the international best seller Our House, a new novel of twisty domestic suspense asks, “Could you hate your neighbor enough to plot to kill him?”

Lowland Way is the suburban dream. The houses are beautiful, the neighbors get along, and the kids play together on weekends. 

But when Darren and Jodie move into the house on the corner, they donʼt follow the rules. They blast music at all hours, begin an unsightly renovation, and run a used-car business from their yard. It doesn’t take long for an all-out war to start brewing.

Then, early one Saturday, a horrific death shocks the street. As police search for witnesses, accusations start flying - and everyone has something to hide. 

Narrated by Katharine McEwan with Jonathan Cowley, Jayne Entwistle, Andrew Fallaize, Paul Fox, Billie JD Porter, and Moira Quirk

What the critics say

"[A] disturbing novel of domestic suspense. With a structure reminiscent of Liane Moriarty's Big Little Lies.... A nicely paced, wryly intelligent novel with sharp insights into human behavior.” (Kirkus Reviews)

“[An] intricately plotted yet fast-paced storyline. This fiendishly twisty and suspenseful tale of secrets, lies, jealousy, and intrigue keeps readers guessing until the very end. Fans of Celeste Ng and Leila Slimani will be pleased with this contemporary take on families and violence.” (Booklist)

"Highly entertaining.... Candlish forcefully builds the tension in Those People until it reaches a crescendo that is as frightening as it is believable.... Candlish knows how to turn everyday situations sinister.” (Associated Press)
