WOW I did NOT expect that plot twist like what the heck. This book is brilliant. It hooked me from the very FIRST sentence and each chapter added something to the story so I never felt bored. As I mentioned I was not expecting that ending and now that I've finished it I feel sick to my stomach(in a good way). Highly highly recommend :)

After having read myself into a rut with domestic thrillers and crime novels, I hesitantly checked Couple at No. 9 put at my local library and tore through it in every spare moment I had.
I figured out the big twist about half way through, but looking back, I almost believe that any inquisitive reader is meant to. It did not by any means ruin the big reveal - if anything, it added a layer of heartbreak as you unravel the truth along with our MC.
If family secrets, deception, and mysterious dead bodies (along with the quirky British charm we all know and love) is your jam, I highly recommend picking this one up.

Twistier and gayer than expected. Also, the audiobook readers sounded like Nate and Keeley from Ted Lasso.
