There’s something in my neighbour’s attic.

Something steeped in shadows. A secret to everyone. Seen by no one...

He stands sometimes at the window. Hidden in the corner of my eye.

I know he’s there. I know he’s watching.

Now my son is dead. My neighbour is not.

And I’m going to find out why.

From the author of the Sunday Times bestseller, The Dinner Guest, comes THE up-all-night thriller of 2022. For fans of Ruth Ware, Lisa Jewell and T.M. Logan.

Dark and intense this one evoked so many emotions and it covers many themes. There was mystery, secrets, love, grief, friendship, a dysfunctional family and some pretty creepy stuff that made my skin crawl! It kept me on my toes and did require my full attention as it jumped from multiple timelines. All round, I found this to be a quick and thrilling page turner and I look forward to Walter’s next offering.
