This is my first B.A. Paris novel - I know, how can that be?
Alice and Leo have recently moved into their new home in a gated community called The Circle. While Alice is making connections with her new neighbours, she discovers her home was the scene of the murder of the previous owner, Nina Maxwell.
Alice doesn't accept the story that Nina was killed by her husband, and begins to suspect everyone in The Circle.
Now, quite honestly the character of Alice drove me a bit bonkers, but that was presumably by design. Her level of obsession is what drives the plot in this domestic thriller.
The cast of neighbour characters make for an interesting read, and The Therapist is absolutely layered with red herrings and sinister possibilities.
I have Behind Closed Doors on my TBR cart and look forward to reading more of her work!
Looking for a "locked gated community" suspense story? Recommended!
