'A Neighbour's Guide to Murder is fiendishly sharp, clever and gripping. Nobody captures the mores of neighbourhoods and communities, and multi-generational complexities, like Louise Candlish. She's in a league of her own' Lisa Jewell
‘Tense, clever and bitingly observed. Superb’ Claire Douglas
Her secrets will be the death of you…When Pixie moves into Columbia Mansions, divorced Gwen is quick to take the younger woman under her wing. But as Pixie becomes entangled with her charismatic landlord Alec, the lines of friendship begin to blur.
With rumours of illicit goings-on swirling, Gwen soon realises Pixie isn’t the only one with something to hide. How well does she really know the neighbours she considers her friends?
As scandal erupts, old grudges resurface, leading to a crime that will destroy the peace of Columbia Mansions forever.
Sunday Times bestseller Louise Candlish returns with this gripping, twisted story of neighbours, secrets and murder.
