Prepare to be hooked: the nail-biting suspense from the addictive number one ten-million-copy bestselling author. 'A moody, slippery novel where nobody is as they seem ... Jewell cements her position as queen of character-led fiction.' Gillian McAllister 'Utterly addictive, twisty and so dark and clever with characters that burst off the page. This is my favourite Lisa Jewell book yet!' Claire Douglas 'I loved it. With chills, shocks and twists aplenty, you can't put it down. Exceptionally skilful and blissfully engrossing.' Candice Fox 'Unsettling and claustrophobic ... The twists and turns will truly make you gasp out loud. This is Jewell at the height of her powers.' Ellery Lloyd ____________ Celebrating her 45th birthday at her local pub, podcaster Alix Summers crosses paths with an unassuming woman called Josie Fair. Josie is also celebrating her 45th birthday. They are, in fact birthday twins. A few days later, Alix and Josie bump into each other again, this time outside Alix's children's school. Josie has been listening to Alix's podcasts and thinks she might be an interesting subject for Alix's series. She is, she tells Alix, on the cusp of great changes in her life. Alix agrees to a trial interview. Josie's life appears to be strange and complicated, and although Alix finds her unsettling, she can't quite resist the temptation to keep digging. Slowly Alix starts to realise that Josie has been hiding some very dark secrets, and before she knows it Josie has inveigled her way into Alix's life - and into her home. Soon she begins to wonder who is Josie Fair? And what has she done? ____________ Praise for Lisa Jewell . . . 'I read it all in one sitting' COLLEEN HOOVER 'I loved The Family Upstairs!'
