From Little Stack

This is a brilliant debut novel, a suspenseful, slow-burn thriller that is much darker than it appears on the surface.

Iris and her family have just moved into number 23 Riddleston Road, the house of dreams. But they shouldn’t be there. Not after what Iris did to get her hands on it… But when you’re desperate to give your child everything he needs, everything he could want, you’d do anything… surely?

I loved how this book explores motherhood and the intensity of a mother’s love. The fact that Iris’s love knows no bounds when it comes to her son. There is always a building tension, the emotional parts so raw and at times, relatable. And those solid twists are unforgettable! Stunning writing and a joy to experience. 

Publisher Description

On Riddleston Road each house reaches three storeys high, with smart gabled roofs and neat garden paths unfurling from pastel coloured front doors. Wide, sash windows stare outwards from the brick facades, revealing a glimpse of beautiful interiors. And concealing dark secrets.

Today a new family has moved into number twenty-three. A family who shouldn't be there.

As Iris stacks boxes in the hallway, she knows she has made a mistake in coming here. This house will mean her son will get the future he deserves. That will make everything she's done worth it.

But someone knows Iris's secret and what she did to get her dream home... Would she kill to keep it?

A completely addictive psychological thriller with twists you just won't see coming. Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Louise Candlish and Lisa Jewell.
