About The People Next Door

A new life in the English countryside is about to turn deadly... I thought this move would be our fresh start. A beautiful old house in rural Norfolk. Quiet, secluded and safe - that's what Ash my boyfriend, promised me. And at first, it is... Until I meet the neighbours. Benjamin is friendly, almost too eager to please. But his sister, Virginia, is different. Silent. Distant. Always watching. Then I learn what happened to the last person who lived here - how they vanished without a trace. With Ash away on business, the house no longer feels empty. I hear footsteps when no one's there. Doors creak open in the night. Something moves in the dark. I tell myself it's nothing. But the feelings won't go away. I feel like I am being watched. And then I start to wonder if coming here was a terrible mistake because I'm not sure I'll ever leave this house alive. ** The thriller not to be missed for fans of Freida McFadden, Claire McGowan and Lisa Jewell.** Praise for Keri Beevis: 'Another winner from Ms Beevis. A gripping story with plenty of twists and turns' - J.A. Baker 'A tense, clever and thought-provoking thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish and long afterwards.' - Natasha Boydell 'Compelling, addictive, fast-paced and chilling. I loved it!' - Amanda Brittany
