Jo and Christy move into a house they never knew they could afford. It was great for them getting just what they wanted and where they wanted it.
The trouble is, the last owner left suddenly and there seems to be a very hush hush on circumstances surrounding this. Not one neighbor in the neighborhood are prepared to open up, hence an obsession is created, and now This woman of the house won’t rest u til she gets to the bottom of it.

A really good puzzling read that we get to expect from Louise Candlish.

This was a perfect holiday read, probably best classed as women's fiction. There wasn't a romance read so much, rather it was an exploration of relationships and truths.

Neither of the main characters were particularly likable, and both were flawed. The story was told by their alternatively viewpoints - one character in the present, the other in the past. The basic plot was that a couple with not a lot of cash get lucky and buy an amazing house on an amazing street for a knockdown price. Of course they begin to question why. It becomes clear that the other people on the street are a little guarded and are not quite telling the truth about some mystery that has happened recently. The Frasers of the title were a rich couple who had renovated the house and then disappeared in mysterious circumstances. This is not a whodunnit though, there's no blood on the carpet or murders to solve. This is a story of manipulation, lies, half-truths, and betrayal.

I would read other books by the author and thank the publisher and Netgalley for this review copy.
