One neighbourhood, four couples, an amateur burglar and one dead
body - this is a masterful whodunnit, perfectly paced and expertly
plotted, that had me guessing all the way through. Like
Desperate Housewives with bite. I loved it and couldn't put
it down. * C. L. Taylor *
Shari Lapena just gets better and better. * Cara Hunter *
Exactly what I love in a book: a small cast, an intricate plot
worthy of Agatha Christie, with characters who stay in my mind long
after the novel has finished. As for her writing - it was just
perfect, as though Anne Tyler had written a thriller. No greater
compliment can be given! * Mary Torjussen *
Shari Lapena has done it again. Someone We Know grabs you by
the lapels on page one and doesn't loosen its grip until the last
sentence. Love the claustrophobic suburban neighbourhood where
anything can happen behind those front doors. * Fiona Barton,
bestselling author of THE WIDOW *
I fell hook, line and sinker for this book, only surfacing back to
reality after the final page. Shari Lapena is a writer at the
absolute top of her game. Someone We Know was masterfully
plotted, the suspense ratcheted up with agonising precision and the
ending so satisfying I wanted to flip back through the pages to see
how she managed it. Brilliant. * Holly Seddon, author of TRY NOT TO
BREATHE *
