3.5 ⭐️

An incredibly fast paced, page turning domestic thriller surrounding a couple who are trying for a baby, who take in a lodger who develops a unhealthy obsession.

Really enjoyed this and found it to be very well written, my only irk was that the “twist” was glaringly obvious within the first 20 pages and I think it was revealed too early, leaving the latter half to drag.

Still recommend!
