Girl Upstairs
*Don't miss The Lost Wife - the brand new jaw-dropping thriller from Georgina Lees*
'Compelling, heartbreaking and beautifully written. This superb thriller will stay in my mind for a very long time' B P Walter, Sunday Times-bestselling author of The Dinner Guest
How well do you know your neighbour? Would you trust them with your life?
I heard Emily before I saw her. The harsh smack of heels against cheap wooden floorboards. The loud phone calls. The incessant music.
I knew Emily before I met her. Discarded receipts in our communal hallway. Sticky leftovers in the shared food waste bin. Wine shop vouchers in the letterbox.
Now she's gone missing, and I'm the only one who can find her. The only one who can save her.
Because I know her best, and I heard everything.
The Girl Upstairs is a spine-tingling psychological thriller of grief and obsession that explores how lonely London can be and how sometimes it's our neighbours who see us most, who know us best...
A must-read for fans of Lisa Jewell and Sarah Pinborough.

Then Emily disappears and with what happened before, Suzie takes it upon herself to find out what has happened to her.
This was a great book, learning why Suzie is like she is, why she doesn’t sleep in her bedroom and seems to have basically given up, but then her getting up and being determined to do what she couldn’t do in the past.
First, I thought she was one of ‘those’ neighbours, but there is so much more to her, and I loved reading the book and her layers peeling back and finding out more about her.
By the end of the book, I really liked Suzie, she was one determined lady.
There were a lot of twists although I did guess who the culprit was around halfway through the book. It was still a gripping read and I really enjoyed reading it.
