THE NEW HEART-POUNDING NOVEL FROM SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR, CLAIRE DOUGLAS

It was the house of their dreams. Until the bodies were found . . .

BODIES FOUND UNDER PATIO

When pregnant Saffron Cutler moves into 9 Skelton Place with boyfriend Tom and sets about renovations the last thing she expects is builders uncovering a body - two bodies, in fact.

POLICE INVESTIGATE

Forensics indicate the bodies have been buried at least thirty years. Nothing Saffy need worry herself over. Until the police launch a murder investigation and ask to speak to the cottage's former owner - her grandmother, Rose.

OWNER QUESTIONED

Rose is in a care home and Alzheimer's means her memory is increasingly confused. She can't help the police but it is clear she remembers something.

A KILLER AT LARGE?

As Rose's fragmented memories resurface, and the police dig ever deeper, Saffy fears she and the cottage are being watched.

What happened thirty years ago?

Why did no one miss the victims?

What part did her grandmother play?

And is Saffy now in danger?

Commentaires

Spine-chilling . . . Douglas writes sensitively about dementia in this heartbreaking novel about how far a desperate woman will go to survive
This book has everything I love: murder, a taut and fiendishly clever plot and nail-biting tension (Emma Curtis)
A darkly absorbing mystery
Combines a tight, gripping plot and truly shocking twist, with beautiful writing and emotion. A thriller with a heart. One of the best I have read in a long time (Nuala Ellwood)
Secrets, skeletons, mothers and daughters - and some absolutely corking twists! A cracking thriller, I loved it (Eve Chase, author of The Glass House)
A well-plotted tale. All the characters are hiding things and you're often waiting for the next secret to blow up. Intriguing. Twisty. Surprising. Touching. Enjoyed it (Dorothy Koomson)
Devotees of domestic noir will love the multiple perspectives and shifts in time that Claire Douglas uses to complicate her nervy narrative
Tense, twisty, fraught with emotion and packed with secrets, The Couple at No. 9 is Claire's best thriller yet (Gilly Macmillan)
This well-paced thriller never lets up the pace, and delivers a twist that it's unlikely you will have seen coming
Dense and deeply creepy, this is a top-class chiller

Le plus pertinent
I really enjoyed this book. This is the 2nd one that I downloaded written by Claire Douglas, I enjoyed the first one so much (do not disturb) I wanted to listen to another.
Starts off as a simple story but then it gets completely and wildly intriguing and I could not stop listening to it.

Full of twists and turns

The characters were beautifully portrayed by the narrator. The story was cleverly executed with surprises along the way.
First book of hers that I’ve read, and will definitely be reading more!

Brilliant !

The plot was good, some twist. The ending could have been better as there where a few holes, but worth a listen.

Great thriller
