This is the second novel from Senta Rich. Having read her first book, I was waiting with somewhat bated breath for this second novel. She is a fine writer and this book follows her first with excellent characterisation. What I love most about her is that she takes simple ordinary situations but adds a twist. This book deals with a couple and a new neighbour. It explores the relationship between them and her. What happens when this neighbour moves in? What is her motive? Will their marriage survive? Will there be infidelity? Through a weaving of rich characterisation and drama, this is a darkish book full of twists and turns and one which I read in two days. While not as good as her first book, this is a really good novel from Senta Rich and an easy read that will grip you. I look forward to the next book. Thank you Bloomsbury and NetGalley for the opportunity to read it.

I liked this book. It's like a fictional self help tale and I really liked the characters.

It is a well written story telling the tale of a couple, who like the rest of us have relationship ups and downs, and then a stranger enters their lives and gives them something to think about.

I like domestic fiction and I found this a deep and quite meaningful read..
