Description
The perfect neighbours tell the perfect lies...
A top ten Kindle bestseller
Behind the shutters lies a devastating secret...
When Helen moves abroad with her loving husband Gary, she can't wait to meet her fellow expat teachers from the local International School. But her new start is about to become her worst nightmare...
As soon as the charming family across the way welcome Helen into their home, she begins to suspect that all is not as it seems. Then Gary starts to behave strangely and a child goes missing, vanished without a trace.
When violence and tragedy strike, cracks appear in the community, and Helen realises her perfect neighbours are capable of almost anything...
'Dark, claustrophobic and suffused with a creeping sense of menace, The Perfect Neighbours builds to a shocking climax. I thoroughly enjoyed it' Alex Lake, bestselling author of Seven Days
'An original, gripping thriller that is both unnerving and shocking in equal measure. I was immediately drawn into the strange, claustrophobic neighbourhood and Rachel Sargeant creates a thrilling sense of foreboding throughout' Phoebe Morgan, author of The Babysitter
'A gripping tale of dark secrets and domestic lies' Sam Hepburn, author of Her Perfect Life
'Builds from a creeping sense of unease to a jaw-dropping climax and a denouement I defy anyone to see coming' Chris Curran, author of Her Deadly Secret
'From the very first page I knew I was assured of a fluffing good read from an author I can't wait to hear from again' Jen Med's Book Reviews
'A riveting, twist-packed thriller that had me hooked from the first page' Nicki's Life of Crime
'A chilling and cryptic novel, proving just how difficult it is to truly know someone, inside out' Pretty Little Books
