"Fiendishly sharp, clever and gripping. Nobody captures the mores of neighborhoods and communities, and multi-generational complexities, like Louise Candlish." --Lisa Jewell, #1 New York Times bestselling author
From internationally bestselling author Louise Candlish, a witty psychological suspense novel in which an older woman's suspicions about her charming new neighbor ignite a dangerous spiral in their luxury apartment building.
In Columbia Mansions, secrets don't stay behind closed doors for long.
It's rare for a room to open up in London's storied Columbia Mansions, and lonely Gwen is thrilled when her neighbor's new subletter, Pixie, brings a friendly breath of fresh air to its stuffy halls. Their unexpected bond soon becomes the bright spot in Gwen's quiet life. But Gwen can't help noticing cracks beneath Pixie's cheerful surface--especially when it comes to her questionable financial arrangement with her live-in landlord, Alec.
As suspicions mount, Gwen's protective instincts go into overdrive, triggering a dangerous chain of events no one is prepared for. The last thing Columbia Mansions wants is a scandal on its hands ... Let alone a murder.

disappointing
I downloaded for my Kindle, my type of book, good storyline so far so good!
The book was very well written, but the story was depressing and dull. Unfortunately the characters were predictable and hackneyed. It was a disappointing effort from such a good writer.
Very mixed reviews at my book club on this one - but I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it. The style of narrative reminded me a little of that used in the books by Richard Osman. I thought it was intriguing and some of the characters really annoyed me but they were meant to I believe! Witty and held my attention. A real twist at the end and didn’t see it coming. Very light easy but Interesting read.Would recommend!
3.5 stars. Hard to review. IMO not as good as author’s other books. I didn’t like any of the characters and found the first 1/2 of the book boring&irritating. I would have given up if it was a new author, I was unfamiliar with. The ending made you reflect more on the story but I can’t help feeling disappointed with this one.
